With the start point being on the comparatively unknown BRT system, it was delightful to see so
many photographers gathered for the latest Bangkok Photographers Group walk. A total of 37
photographers braved a cloudy day in the middle of an extremely wet rainy season to see what
Mark had found for us this time.
The route itself was worth the risk of rain. It followed some really narrow walkways alongside
some equally small waterways around a mostly residential part of town, giving us a unique flavour
of local life in Bangkok. Thanks again to Mark for his outstanding scouting.
We only got to the residental part of the route after a short walk following the main road.
Along the way, we passed a street sweeping crew that must have thought we’d mistaken them for
supermodels, given the amount of photographers who stopped for a shot or two. You can check
out the results on page 36.
In total, 27 of the photographers who attended the walk went on to submit photos for the
magazine, providing some really exceptional images for Greg to choose from. This was actually
a little disappointing, given that we were so close to 100 per cent of walkers submitting images
after walk #105. However, the slightly shorter issue actually worked in our favour this time as this is
our first attempt at getting the magazine out within less than two weeks of the walk. We hope to
see submissions back up following walk #107, though, as we love seeing your work!
As those who attended the celebration and release of our previous issue know, Dennie has
kindly returned to providing his feedback on the images published. It’s always good to get
alternative opinions on your photography as it helps us all to improve, and you can be sure that
Dennie won’t sugar-coat it! If you’d like to hear his opinion of your shots, remember to submit
them for the next issue and attend the event at Margarita Storm on Sukhumvit Road, by the
entrance to Soi 13. Hopefully we’ll see you there soon.
Have fun,
Greg, Ben and Mark.
