Title: Scenes from a festival
Post by: Bricktop on November 05, 2018, 05:58:56 PM
I'm trying a new line of photography...street shooting.



We had an Asian festival here on the weekend and I took the camera along to take some snaps .



Just a general view of the "Lucky Dumpling" market and food area.

It's a rather gloomy day (has been for weeks. Spring is a bust so far) and rain set in shortly afterwards.

Fortunately...no human meat was used by the Filipina chef, according to the sign.

No, he's happy as a long pig in a bath of it's own excrement. Living in Thailand with Mrs Gordy, and loving it.

I don't know what he's lost more of...weight or hair.



He's doing fine. Seems very happy.

He's retired, he lives in a tropical country and most importantly, he has a lovely wife who makes him happy.
