Some photos from Bangkok.

[Merelyok]

Hello all,

Just got back from a short trip in Bangkok. Brought along my Bessa R3a and nokton 40mm 1.4 SC. Was shooting film overseas for the very first time so as you can imagine i was pretty excited.

Shots here are a mix of Tri-x, neopan 400 and Ilford XP2.

Oh, and Bangkok is an amazing location for street photography.

Quite a number of shots, please bare with me here..

Roadside Hawker.

Chinatown Punk.

Incredibly shots, improved my otherwise boring Sunday by a lot I especially like the Husky and Back Alley. Now I really want to go to Thailand.
