Dancealot Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 Wouldn't it be great is we got a Pickup Photo in ... http://www.thaivisa.com/forum/topic/679083-thaivisa-20142557-calendar-photo-contributions/ First of all, I am very pleased to see the 2014 calendar is on, again. Though Let's say we all make a vote: Go through this whole thread and choose the pick-up you like the most. And post this vote right here on the pick-up thread which Ron19 has set-up in the beginning. You can't vote on yourself, of course. The one with the most votes will be presented to Tywais.

Dancealot Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 Mae Sot 2012, getting the pick-up to the busstation. I remember, I was ordered to sit upfront with the driver because I was the "largest" person on this ride... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ron19 Posted November 4, 2013 Author Share Posted November 4, 2013 (edited) Mae Sot 2012, getting the pick-up to the busstation. I remember, I was ordered to sit upfront with the driver because I was the "largest" person on this ride... Been there and have had to do the same although on one particular trip,the driver got sick of me complaining all the time about him crossing to the wrong side of the road on blind (for him) right hand bends.Pretty smart fellow this so what he did was stop for fuel and before he did anything,he went into the shop and came out with a large bottle of Singha,gave it to me and told me to sit in the back seat (behind him) because I hadn't been sitting next to my wife all day.

Dancealot Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 I was wondering why the guys in the pick-up weren't waving at me. They were looking at the other way... Not one even playfully threatened to wash out my camera... Now I see why..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David48 Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 Incredible amount of great composure and video / photography skills on your part David Very well enjoyed , thanks for sharing. Mate, you are way to kind. It was just that the opportunity presented itself. The real skill was standing in the pouring rain, capture the images not destroy the camera and maintain the friendliness with the subject despite the obvious issues. I just wish I had one of them all waving goodbye. Thanks for the kind words though ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, with a bit of cropping, you could also post that on the Flag Tread just started in the Photography Forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
