Everyday life - People

People shots this week. These are the kind of shots that I'm always trying to get - but they're always the hardest to find.

The first shot was taken inside the Cao Dai Temple, Vietnam. They encourage tourists to visit and are happy for you to take pictures - but I have to say that I wasn't confortable taking photos during the worshiop - my camera was firmly packed away by then.

This next shot was taken on the border between Equador and Peru. There were probably 20 money changers just like this lady, all lined up in a row.

Nice one of the money changer - been getting into "street" (geez I sound wanky)stuff, but it's dull in an urban western city.

BTW Lake Tittiecaca [sic] is a fantastic photo. I hope it's A3 printed and framed on your wall by now!

Thanks Hash. I know what you mean about not always finding inspiration around the city - I've recently been going after some urban degredation / architectural shots - one subject always around the corner here.

The Lake shot isn't on the walls yet - I'm not allowd to hang much here (stupid landlords!)
