Cheers,
h1ghfly3r. Yes, for the portrait shots I always asked first, with a few hand gestures too in case they did not understand me. People were genuinely friendly and happy for me to take their photo.

BTW the temple you visited in Bangkok when you took the ferry across the Chao Phraya River was Wat Arun, the Temple of Dawn.
Thank you,
restlessinRNO. Wat Arun was definitely a cool temple to visit and get away from the usual tourist crowds.

I'm impressed by the number of people shots you are able to get - it really does add quite a bit to the story and gives you a sense of "feeling" the local environment. Not sure how often you get turned down or told no, but seems like a fair share of people are willing to have their picture taken.
Petting the tigers seems pretty surreal - and freakin' awesome.
Thank you,
shogunate03. Yes, the Thai people were very friendly and happy to put up with a overbearing 'farang' like me with a camera
. The tigers were a real trip too. Some of the Thai tiger parks seem to get a bad rap, but the one we went to didn't seem too bad.
