Impressions from the Bangkok Marathon this past Sunday

- now there is apparently a new rule being hashed out about limiting picture posts to one pix per thread per day (week/month?), while this is in the works I'm just posting as before, so if any mod thinks this is against the rules, just delete the whole thing...

to the pictures, now, I only used a point'n shoot, so it ain't that purrrty:

I really don't know how you manage to pull these shots off FR,

If I tried to shoot directly into the sun,all I would end up with would be a pure white image and burnt retina!!!

Loads of positive exposure compensation and a healthy dose of post-processing!

Sepak takraw or Kataw as it is called by the locals.

Ok - not the greatest action shot - but I only had my phone with me. Another shot of the traditional Asian sport of Takraw.
