Photographer's Note
The roads of Vientiane and other towns in Laos are dominated by the thundering jumbo Tuk tuks, the 3-wheeler auto-rickshaw in the foreground. Alone in Vientiane there is an army of about 4.000 jumbo tuk tuks on the road and the authorities would like to ban them, as they are polluters. However first there should be mass transport systems in place. So far there are a few electro buses but it is to far to little.

Hello Urs,
Despite the fact that these tuk tuks are the cause of much pollution, I think they provide a fast and efficient transport. Hopefully at prices that the locals can pay and for tourists they often mean a more pleasant and rather adventurous type of travelling.
You show us a very diverse and colourful street scene.
Best regards, Paul

Hi Urs,
Wow! What a great street life scene you have captured! Unfortunately, I've never been in Asia so it looks very interesting and unique for me. Like your POV and wide angle of shot. Excellent sharpness and clarity achieved. TFS.
Best,
Gosia

Hi Urs
I remember this well, tuk tuk is the cheapest mode of transport one can enjoy here. I like the sense of dynamism and the focus on main interest is spot on with good vaibrat background scene giving a sence of how busy the street is. Lighting is great too full of colors and lots of lively activity around. This is another slice of street life nicely depicted, Congrats
Kind regards
