Moment: Angkul Sungthong

Most of my routine, It’s becoming a habit that I always carry my camera with me whenever I’m going out. So my picture is a slice of my everyday life. Here in Bangkok, daytime sunlight is very strong especially at noon. Everybody hate its, but not me. At every lunch break it’s my joy time. It’s my photo shooting walking (lunch) time!

In this picture. At first, I was triggered by a big bright red wall, then the thing I saw was reflection on the car. The illusion is the real trigger at this scene. At the same time, luckily the God of street photography sent me the black dress woman (who hated the sunlight) to walk pass that scene. Her posture echo to the giant graphic hand on the red wall. I took a couple shots while she walked away.

After lunch break, I was back to office and checked for pictures I took. I noticed that the woman’s reflection on the car was distorted. Windshield wiper was transformed to be the reflection of her black dress. “Illusion” things may be my subconscious art method.
