LIFE ON A TRISHAW

June 10th, 2009

SHOOTING

It was May Day, a special holiday for me.  I asked my friend to pick me up in the morning.  We got a shooting somewhere around Yangon.  5:00 sharp, there my mobile rang!  I got myself dressed up and went to Lanmadaw Street.   Yes, this little bastard called Wynn Thein asked me to wait him at Lanmadaw plaza, 100 meter away from my home.  I was carrying my heavy camera bag and went down to Lanmadaw plaza to see his UGLY face.  Damn…  I am blessed with no choice.  I walked on an empty street.  And I saw this trishaw driver sleeping this way.  So, I took out my camera and gave him a shot.  Yes, he didn’t even know that I captured his sleep.

Working for the whole night, it might be a sound sleep for him.  A precious and my favorite type of candid shot.

@ Suwei >> Thanks a lot for your compliment. The narration was what I had in my mind while shooting…

@ မီးငယ္ >> CANDID shot, my sis. If I had bugged him for the permission, I am sure there aint no chance for me to have such shot…

@ Win Thiri Kyaw >> Appreciate your comment and visit, sis… I see something and I translate into the language of photography…

@ Shwe Wut Hmone Khine >> At least there are some people who earn for a bite with a good moral… Respect to these people…

@ Yinnwe >> The color tone is post shooting production, my sis…

@ ခင္ေမၿငိမ္း >> Thz for your praise. CANDID shots are what I normally see everyday…

@ AKWin >> Thanks for comment, Sayar. I have tried with B&W, but seems like I prefer this one…

@ PonGyi >> Thanks heaps for your details comments, sis. I am not sure what’s inside the plastic bottle. Chinese tea or B.E? Lolz… If you wanna take such shot, wake up early. When it comes to Street Life / Candid Photography, Burma is a place where you see heaps of interesting subjects to shoot…
