This is a great photo I have tried to get similar shots myself, the mix of the traffic and the neon glow of the advertising everywhere you look. just nice!; 8 August 2010 at 10:32 pm

I took this out a taxi window after playing around with the settings so the focus was on the billboard in the distance. I find these types of shots are generally difficult to take with a point and shoot camera, so I find I need to just keep clicking to get on e relatively decent. This one is not overly good as the focus in the background is not that strong

There was a woman who set up a banh mi cart right under the Samsung sign each night. I could get 2 for one US dollar. There was also a woman who ran a cafe at the entrance to the hem, she would deliver breakfast to my apartment each morning, usually bun bo hue. Thanks for bring back some great memories.; 17 August 2010 at 9:05 pm
