Digital Dirt #4: THAILAND 2011 - Bangkok 002

...below is the 2nd drop of photos from Doig + My 2011-2012 run-around Thailand, Vietnam + Cambodia.

...this batch is from Bangkok, THAILAND: Dec. 9th 2011, til Dec. 10th. 2011

On the 9th we finished up our temple-run in Bangkok + chilled around our guesthouse. Then on the 10th we took our man Gobie's advice and had a look at the 'Bangkok Art + Culture Centre' which had a HUUUUGE exhibit on focusing on the 2011 flooding in Bangkok and surrounding areas. Damn nice building + exhibit. Finally we had a brief glimpse + some Thai Maccas, at the 'MBK' Shopping Centre, which was intense.

• Camera - Canon EOS 450D (digital)
• Setting(s) - most with automatic focus, some with flash, various ISO + shutter-speed
