A small Bangkok street,it is about 12 noon,the sun is right above our heads,temperatures high above 35 celcius and 100% humidity.
Most people stay inside,into the shade,streetdogs are taking a nap.
And theres that sweating lunatic with his camera,wondering around that endless,huge city.......

Hi Jan.
Nice midday shot. Did you shoot that dog ?
Sounds well known to me. In the middle east (UAE) we use to jump from one lamppost to the other to have some shade from above, haha
Better, in the cities, from one airco shop to the other.
In Singapore, onto the 'Shell refinery island' (Pulau Bukom), going on a bike from the office to the 'plant', I had one towel on the steering, one on my head and one at the back. All three, where soaping wet after arrival.
Boy oh boy, good times were bad.

Groeten van Jan

scott

Hi jan

I've been to Bkk in July. The heat & high humidity was oppressive to say the least. December/January is a better time to go. Thr dog looks exhausted. Tfs!

Hi Jan,

Nou dan hoop ik dat je ook bescherming op je hoofd had en op een gegeven moment moet je maar gewoon door zweten.
Wij hadden vroeger er camcorder die door de 100% luchtvochtigheid kapot is gegaan, we maakten hem open en toen was hij in plaats van koper kleurige onderdelen ineens voorzien van groene onderdelen en die werkten dus niet meer.
Zou onze camera ertegen kunnen?
De hitte weerkaatst via de witte plu zo de foto uit.

TFS
Els
