Lives On The Railway (02)

2008.08.26
It’s near PYI WIN station. The train stopped by for a while and the local street vendors approached and tried to sell the local produces to the passengers.

This lady is a local Durian vendor. They sell these agricultural produces to passengers who want to buy these as GIFTS for home.

I have twisted this shot with SOFT FOCUSING effect.

Here how they sell their produces...

Once the train stopped, you see hundreds of these vendors selling different types of produces especially LOCAL FOOD and FRUITS.

A very rare type of scenario which you cannot find in other countries. I used to travel with train in Thailand. Thailand does not have these... But here we do!!

YANGON - MANDALAY express stopping by parallel with our train.

Friends:

Thanks for your sincere comments on my post Lives On The Railway (01). I have received lots of sincere comments from my beloved friends all around the world. It makes me feel that my dear visitors love to explore such lifestyle from different part of the world. Some people request more shots from the railway. I listened!!! So, here it is. Please leave some comments and let me see the feedbacks on my works.

MUMMoira Your shots of everyday life are fantastic , you should be on front page . I love your soft effect in no 3 and the little string of flowers in the lady's hair seems to give a positive effect to these hard-working people.
Well done.
BTW What are these fruits?

DancingDolphin Another very interesting story. In this country, I frequently travel by train to see my daughter. The windows do not open, and no comes to sell me local food at the stops... sadly! Great set. Beautiful capture of the young lady on the left in #5.

ming ting wht kind of fruit is it?
ming ting · 2008-08-27: 01:01
swmkhine@gmail.com Very good shots ! You captured well .I see all the vendors are females. Some are children. Why it is ? In my country, for normal women is there no place to render their services except being a vendor ? Why??? Very pitiful , they are . Really I want having the power to help my people esp for the children & women . Thank you for your good report uncovering what is happening in my land. let's pray for them to enfranchise from struggling for their lives. Be peaceful!
