food stand, a photo from Bangkok, Central

Photographer's Note

"Dare you come and steal my snacks! Grrrrrrrr!" haha! this stand is at the entrance of the station and somehow she did not look too inviting to buy her food;-)) and as usual, a portrait of the king above her head!

PS: ijust created a theme called "My food of the world" where I try to show all food shots... hope you will like it! A special attention for Luan... LOL

Salut Eric, ma préférée de ta série bouffe, j'aime bien l'humeur peu attirante qui se dégage ici, avec cette femme sous la photo du roi... L'avant-plan flou me plaît bien aussi... Très bonne gestion des blancs, les couleurs font très naturel...
A+

Salut Eric,
Pas la pour rigoler la cuisiniere!!! C'est egalement ma preferee de "ta serie bouffe". Peut etre parce qu'une photo signee eleparc sans personne dessus, c'est un peu comme Versailles sans son chateau... J'aime bien les couleurs assez metalliques qui donnent un air industriel a la cuisine, et la petite casquette qui fait style "ici on fait attention a l'hygiene".
Bon ap'

C'est vraiment tres bon tout ca, surtout pour ceux 'entre nous qui connaissent bien..tu me fais tellement envie d'y aller, mais c'est a Hanoi que je vais dans 10 jours. Le sentiment, les sensations, tout y est dans ton image.
Fort ca...
Merci,
Francis

hello Ereic, pas facile la petite dame... ai de dire "vivement ce soir!" ici c'est étonnant ton focus qui n'est pas sur les aliments, alors que c'est ton thème.. mais c 'est certainement voulu, pour suggérer seulement mais pas manger, en fait cela nous met en appétit!je préfère celle d'hier!!

Hi Eric,
such a typical scenery ... and the king's image is everywhere like you mentioned in your note ... I like food shots and I would even love to get some Thai Food just now.
Nice compo,
Nino

Eric, your theme is delicious ;) I love this one. The poster guy dominates the entire scene. He might be looking somewhere outside the frame, but his presence is so strong that this lady will have some problems finding a hungry customer. Love the light that shines through the entire scene. Very good compo and nice focus option. Thanks

Hi Eric,
I love the way you're focusing on the two faces instead of on the food. Nice choice, especially as her face does tell a story. Funny note, too.

salut eric,
nice idea about the theme i only wish you included some of the food in focus as the food seems to be more interesting than the details in the background of the stand;

Hey Eric,

interesting thing is that her facial expression matches the king's somewhat. She looks really serious about her food. I lokd at your food series and prefer this one by a long shot. The focus here is on telling a human story and the food, is nicely blurred out. Good choice of focus.

I can't identify the food; I think roasted chicken. who knows... I like all the placement of your elements here Eric. A great shot IMO. Btw, I'm back stateside. regards, c
