Unlike Sydney, Bangkok is not a scenic city. It is impossible to catch the sunrise and absorb a sublime aura of a new day. On the other hand, what makes up for it is the morning vibe that people create. I am familiar with daybreak actions in a suburb when morning market starts and Buddhist monks come out for the ritual of almgiving, meanwhile middle class cars rush to the jam to workplaces and schools.
However, in the heart of the city, just before the traffic begins to get stuck, there are something very intriguing as I found on one early morning on Sukhmvit Road.

Sydney Gay & Lesbian Mardi Gras is about to kick off in a few weeks. And I will be participating as one of the photographers in one of visual arts programs, Mardi Gras: the Slide Show.
Last year event was a big break for me, not only to stretch my photographic actions but also to have the big names, like Dick Quan and Robert McFarlane, to see my works and appreciate them was huge flatter. The award is just a bonus. Big thanks to the project producer, Robert McGrath.
Although my visual style is far from usual Mardi Gras photos, which is the practice of the project, this image from last year is probable the most compromised to be use for this year web site. And another good news is Australia Centre for Photography will be showing the limited selection of last year slide show too. Hopefully, some of mine will get into the show. That would help my little dream comes true.
