A very classic view of the old time: the old bike and the old vehicle. The mist even makes this picture more attractive. A very nice capture. Well done Anthony. Sothy

You have creating a very atmoshere shot through your PP. Almost like a film set, I am surprised to see that Francis has not yet noticed this.
Good POV and a good moment --what is he looking at? What attracted his attention?

I like that foggy, grainy feel you captured here: it's Sapa allright, complete right down to that Russian jeep!
Well seen,
Francis

Anthony, it is like a photo from 50 years ago, the atmosphere is very interesting. First I thought it was a B&W, but when I opened the page, I saw it was actualy in color, witch makes it even more intersting. Good framing, interesting theme and good sharpness, I like it.

very nice mood. The noise here actually helps the atmosphere like grainy film used

Oh boy! Love it. No flowers, no sunsets, no nice landscapes. No asian type of pictures. No smiling kid. Just a biker and that old jeep. And the fog. And the cold. And that dirt road. And that killing grain (in the good sense, obviously!). Is that enough reasons to like your photo? For me, it's more than enough! Thanks!

Zdravo Ante. Nice one, almost monchromatic. Well balanced and animated, thanks to the man on the motorbike who seems to be sharing a joke with someone. Lovely atmosphere. Pozdrav. Klaudio.
