Merry Xmas...

Merry Christmas to all my blog readers and followers on FB page too!

The girl by the roadside...

On my recent educational trip to Vietnam, I happen to chance upon a girl who was part of a group of artisans and craftsmen who was peddling their wares by the roadside. She made for an interesting subject matter for a photo. But the sad part was that I couldn't strike a conversation with her, as she seemed oblivious, and was not able to communicate with the entourage that came along. Nonetheless, I hope she is still doing okay.

Here are some stills of her.

Initial test photos...

I had some time to myself to do some updating to my photographs when I perchance upon some, which I took when I was doing some initial tests of the Olympus OMD EM-5. Here's some sampler, without any edits, and straight off the camera.
