Very nice Lars, nice to see something different of Thai Dancers (not taken at a night market thank goodness!). Particularly like the straight-at-the-camera smile, looks nice and natural. Packed with tourists there?
Lars,
Is it ever possible to photograph these beautiful women "back stage" or in "real life"? In performance dress and mode they are obviously gorgeous, but I've always wondered what they are like as regular people.
Beautiful images. Absolutely fantastic. I'd also love to see a portrait shot of the one facing the camera, just because the headpiece makes her orientation so vertical... not that there's anything wrong with the one you have here!
Lars, such rich color and depth in these wonderful images, always such a pleasure seeing your work. Am I right in presuming these are done in natural light?
By the way, Lars, I forgot to mention that I really like the frames you use. Are you using a particular action that you bought, or something that you made?

Thanks Conor, yes there can be a lot of people. But it's not a tourist place. It's the most famous and busy Shrine in Thailand for people to come and pray.

Thank you OntheRez. I have many pics "backstage". Not really backstage because this is a Shrine. But they sit down before and after their performance. I also talk with them a lot and have a few pics when they look "more normal"
