Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied.

Hi Alex,

I found that the hats these ladies were wearing are quite smart.
I suppose they keep the heat down.
These hats are not sitting on the head's skin as we know but are elevated and leaving a gap for air to flow between the hat and the head.
What do you reckon ? BTW where was the floating market ?

Cheers,
CD

Hi Christian,

Yes, I've seen one of those hats, but never tried one on.

This one was in Ratchaburi province. It's a famous one, there are plenty of tourists.

Alex,
Nice shot! like her face with the impression.

Talkinga bout floating market:
Nice to see a difference traditional culture, but some part of this market, the smell of water is stench and dirty, sitting on a tourist boat, cruising along the river upto the floating market is an other experience to remember. Will I go back? NO.
