Phnom Penh

PP (centre far left) is situated at the joining of the Mekong and Ton Le Sap rivers. I highly recommend a visit

Pinko

Bit of blue through the haze

A hazy patchwork yesterday afternoon

Selling green mangoes in the shade

Tight squeeze during road construction

Local shop

Purses, bags, shawls and more

District 1 as seen from the District 2 swamp

Furniture removalists?

There is very little you do not see being transported by motorbikes, but this is the first time I have seen an office chair.

BBQ Garden

BBQ Garden is an outdoor restaurant where you cook the offerings right at the table, all served up with cold beer and plenty of atmosphere

Rain in the dry season

We have the washout from a tropical storm over us at the moment, bringing drizzle for the past 48 hours, which is a strange sight in the dry season

Flying into Saigon last night

Sunset over the Somerset

Standard street view

Coffee and buddha statues

These type of stalls crack me up. They basically only sell two items, and they have absolutely nothing in common whatsoever. What is not uncommon however, is how common these types of stalls are

Chilling in the shade

A few xe om drivers (motorbike taxis) wait in the shade on a relatively hot afternoon for a fare

Split traffic

Building on small blocks creates interesting shapes

Driving down 3/2 street

Ba Thang Hai st, or the 3rd of February st (recognising the establishment of the communist party in Vietnam on 3/2/1930) has these fantastic trees down its entire length, keeping out the heat and dust.

Quoc Tu pagoda

The Quoc Tu pagoda is pretty hard to miss in District 10 as it stands high above the rest of the street architecture. Built in 1963 it is relatively new compared to some others in the city, but none dominate the sky line quite like this one.

Air conditioners only on these balconies

Action at the Esso petrol station

New footpath outside the Reunification Palace

Another banana cart

Hauling something heavy

Sign down

Many windows

Tan Dinh market

Preparing a photo shoot outside the Municipal Theatre

More photos of the theatre here and here

January Theme Day - Changes

75% of votes were for some form of "best photo", yet the poll was overturned in favour of "changes". You cannot get more of a change than that
