    The mean streets of Hanoi

    Hanoi's an organised chaos that was incredible to walk around. Here's a few black and whites:

    Phil, people might lose interest because there are too many pictures.If your need is criticism about the pictures I think you should upload them in small numbers.They are nice overall.

    The streets don't look mean just congested. Nice series.

    Beyond the great image quality, the chaotic telephone/electrical wire situation impressed me. I assume that is standard practice in old cities with limited financial resources.

    It was your shots that were very nice here...even without words you made us realize how probably lucky we are.

    Great shots... Lovely lady on the scooter in image #3. I don't know if it is true but I was told there is an old Vietnamese saying (at least in the south) that if you want a smart and aggressive man, go to the north but, if you want to find a beautiful woman, travel south.

    Shot #3 seems to disprove that old wive's tale! At least about the women

    I'd love to return to Vietnam, especially to the South where I spent my time...

    Great street photography and as usual you've captured the essence of the place. I particularly like the overhead wires shots - makes the place so real and less picture postcard which to me is always a good thing
