Myanmar

[Leica All Day]

Hey Nate, I'll be going back to Yangon on the 20th with a bunch of professional skateboarders (friends).....if you are in Yangon, then we should hook up....keep me updated on your status....

"I worry that my visit would help the government more than the people.
"....woodleica

It is a good point and I think many people think this....and I feel that it is a personal choice and one must consider it.....but one can do things to minimize the amount of money that goes to the government and if you spread the money around to the locals, it goes a long way and is appreciated..........that said, I live in Thailand, and every time I pay my energy bills, i am aware of where my energy is being sorced from...but this is not the place to be discussing this.....there is enough literature out there about the pros and cons of visiting Myanmar.....you can send me a PM if you are interested in going...anyways, thanks for the compliment, I appreciate it

" What film and post processing did you use? Is this on purpose?".....ath

I used Kodak pro image 100....I did not do any post processing at all.....my local lab scans it.....I am not skilled in photoshop....

Micahel, I sent you an email. My plan was to be in Yangon from the 19th to the 26th, but the Myanmar embassy here is a terrible to deal with. They've not gotten me my info about the visa and are dragging their feet. I've probably run out of time to get my visa before we leave for Thailand on the 18th.
