One Rainy Day

We had one rainy day during our two week stay in Hua Hin, Thailand, and these pictures go well with my blue feeling for coming back home to Finland today. I have quite a lot of material form my holiday, and I'll be posting those for probably the next week, while I try to get over the hangover of a great holiday.

Okay, these pictures are not actually that blue in terms of feelings, even though it is raining. Most of the people hurried inside and stayed there until the rain was gone, but the few that were out, I stalked with my camera, the Nikon D7200 and the Nikkor 55-200mm f/4-5.6G lens. We stayed dry on a porch of a bar called the Elephant Bar, that we had hanged out on some nights before.

People stalking with a zoom lens is so much fun, I can usually get away with it quite easily without people noticing me taking a picture of them. The girl on the first picture was buying more hair dye mid-colouring, it made me laugh because I've been there once!

The third picture is my personal favourite, because there is a story to it, even though I only captured the first part of it. She ran across the street with that bucked covering her from the rain, the next time I saw her, she had a plastic bag over her head, and the third time, after maybe half an hour, she had finally gotten an umbrella, the tag still hanging from it.

"Hey girl, come out here, I got some juicy gossip to share!"

"Lol what's up?"

"WOMAN! Stop blabbering out there and go make me that sandwich!"

Full upvote for couple of people who can come up with a funny conversation or story for the people in the three pictures above!

Thank you @escapist for keeping my plants well fed and flourishing while I was away. I can't wait for our travels together to Budapest next month!

PS. My mom brought me cabbage casserole she had made, because she knows it's one of my fave foods and knew that I wouldn't have any energy to source food for myself today.

PPS. Ah, love having the high speed internet back!

Sort:  

"I brought you the good stuff"
"please come in"
"I wonder if that stingy bastard will share with me this time..."

Good writing 😍

Nice writing! Thank's))

@eveuncovered I love your pictures you took on your holiday to Thailand.Espcially the one with the woman or man covering his head from the rain and wanting to hide.Cool pictures.I upvoted this.

Hey stalker with camera girl.

These pictures are very nicee and oh how I love the rain.

Now i wish it was raining

2nd picture - hey honey .. Back for some good loving?

My network is terrible so the others won't load

glad you had a fantastic time and that you had safe travels back!

Thank you! :) I could say that I’m glad to be back, but I’d much rather be staying under the hot sun a few more weeks..

See the one the person in the top photo is looking stylish even under the rain. #Class

What's the verdict, would you return to Thailand? And if so, would you do anything differently next time?

I absolutely loved Thailand and I’m definitely going to go back some day :) I need to write up an extensive review later.

Next time I’m gonna go with a half empty bag, should have believed people when they said that you are going to want to buy a lot of things in there because it is so cheap 😅

I definitely love the colour science there! The pictures are quite simply, but this simplicity tells a really great story itself so good job on these! I will stay on your profile to see more of your work <3

I think simplicity works because there are so much colours everywhere you look in Thailand :)

For me, there's nothing better than curling up in my favorite blanket on a cloudy or rainy day and just knit. Especially in front of the fireplace.
