Sir, you got eyes! but i think our young photographers (as beause they live here)
can see more with their hearts! me, personaly missing the aesthetics, and could only find
the 'Nice documentation' by an expert photographer. Thank You.

This website is great, the pictures show a lot and you are correct, 8 hours could not show you anything, but it looks like you did the best you could with the time allowed.
I do not know of any other country that the people could band together have the disasters that BANGLADESH has and still continue to go on each and everyday.
I have established a working relationship with a person from Dhaka and myself and my wife were very concerned for him and his family afte the cyclone hit them this past week. I have found this person to be one of the best people I have ever worked with and actually have come to consider him as a friend instead of a person I purchase items from. I only wish I had a way to go and visit him and his country. HOPEFULLY SOME DAY I WILL, but in the mean time, I am able to look at pictures like these and get some sort of ideal of how these great people live. Looks to me like the faces in the pictures are all happy and that they are not complaining about life - more then can be said for alot of other countries

Hi Brian, Thank you for your effort. No matter what people say, you, as a foreigner, put a great effort and I am sure you did what you could. I just posted comment regarding this one guy who called Bangladesh as hell hole. I do not know where you are from, but yes BD has its problems. Its poor and over populated. A lot of corruption. But that does not mean that its not a beautiful country. And you know what? The people of Bangladesh are more friendlier then most of the western countries. I am born in New Zealand, but my parents are from Dhaka and every time I went there it was great. At least ppl from BD do not go and kill their fellow students in schools, bomb innocent countries, produce serial killers like USA. People of Bangladesh are more rich in hearts then you will ever be my friend Mr. Ba ba boom or whatever you call yourself. So think twice before you call Bangladesh a hell hole. Cheers Mate

Dear Brian, thanks for the effort. obviously you had a camera but roaming around, taking pictures of every next guy in such close-up that you can see the pores on their skin is not photography. try to get the bigger picture. and 8 hrs time is such a lame excuse. all you did was go to two places and just move about with your finger pressesd hard on the shutter button. you could have gotten better pictures with much less time if you were just selective enough. learn. enough said.

What a hell hole swamp..thats right!The gutter of the world and its getting worse.Where you have a government that steals everything and nothing gets done.Sounds like America.If you would like to see hell on earth..go visit Bangledesh.Bring a gas mask with lots of filters
Brian McMorrow01-Aug-2007 05:54
Ok to all you Dhaka people who think I didn't see the "right" places...I'll be in Dhaka again sometine in the next few months. Tell me, where should I go to see the "real" Dhaka?

again, I only had one day free in Dhaka, and all these photos were taken within 8 hours. Obviously I couldn't see everything.
md sharker 21-Apr-2007 16:06
dear visitor thats a part of daily life like poor people of bangladehs. its not a good collection at all. whoever collected and posted here thats good but he was out of good things he just picked out certain sort of street foto he could not got touch at reality.
NAYON 14-Apr-2007 04:42

hello from google...
Mostafiz 09-Mar-2007 04:47
Thanks for have a look in bangladesh. Most of the picture are taken from Dhaka. It is better if you take some photo from our rural area. This will obviously touch people heart. Thanks once again......................
Khokan Das 21-Jan-2007 12:27
Brian:

Your pictures are good. But I could not find any picture from rural Bangladesh.
Nizam 09-Jan-2007 22:13
Hi Brian, Thanks a lot for the pictures. Excellent feelings. You definitely have captured the real life of Dhaka, I loved it. Do visit again.......
Brian McMorrow04-Jan-2007 12:49
Of course I know there's more to Bangladesh than what I was able to show here. I had a very small amount of free time while I was there.
Gaurav Mehta, India 04-Jan-2007 09:49
I dont know when these pics were taken, but over the past 2 yrs I have been Dhaka several times and there is much more to it like Bosundhara city, Sonargaon Hotel, Farmgate, Dhanmondi, New city of Uttara, Gulshan etc.. and also places like Chittagong, Sylhet & Cox's Bazar. Without all these there cant be a complete album. I advise the photographer to visit the country again.
Zaman 24-Dec-2006 03:14
Bangladesh is not only the culture of Rickshawala,Moorgiwala,Chal-dal-tomato-piajwala. It's a part, I do agree. Here needs to cover ancient culture, folk, education,development etc.
Shafique 22-Dec-2006 09:47
These pictures represent the partial view of Bangladesh. These are part of Bangladesh, not representative picture of Bangladesh. Anyway, thanks for visiting Bangladesh.

I haven't been to Bangladesh in 10 years, but this is only one side to it, this gives an outsider a negative picture of my country
Mirza Zeehan 23-Mar-2006 22:41
This site presents just one side of dhaka,for example-the richshaws,flood affected areas,etc.To view the other side of the city which is completely different,i urge all visitors to this to visit www.dhakaspride.tk atleast for once.Thank u
Guest 22-Mar-2006 15:39
I found your site very interesting, and I want to add that you can print your pictures and put them on banner stands and we also have retractable banner stands and small personal photo stands.
I'm doing some research on the subject. see my site:http://spaces.msn.com/banner-stands/
Thanks!

hey, awsome pics! i love the natural beauty of Bangladesh but it's the faces of the people that make it so vivid, real and beautiful all together! Thanks!
Shaheen 10-Dec-2005 00:33
These are great pictures from Bangladesh.. although..the Streets and buldings look massed up...I thought Dkaka is much batter than this.
Shahnawaz A. Shishir 07-Dec-2005 15:22

Great photos - thanks for sharing them. I am writing a novel and one of the main characters is from Bangladesh so your photos help me to remember what it's like in the streets of Dhaka - I found it difficult to take photos without being swarmed! These scenes have brought it all back. What an incredible country.
suzanne 26-Feb-2005 00:26
Dear Brian:
thank you for these lovely, accurate, heart-stirring photos. I came across your site when I was doing some further research for a book I'd written about my 1985 visit to Dhaka and Ajmer, Calcutta, etc. as an American female with a Bengali guru, visiting Sufi shrines, etc. etc. I had not taken enough pictures, and the culture shock had been overwhelming, so thank you for reminding me of all the wondrous images.

I found your site while doing research on Dhaka for a project designing city logos for school. I've found them tremendously inspiring and hope I can visit this city one day. Thanks!

Thank you Brian for putting up such a beautiful collection of pictures. What I liked best was the human face priority over inanimate objects in this photographic collection that did justice to this culturally rich country even though financial growth is still not up to the mark. Bangladesh is the most optimistic country on earth because it supports equivalent to half the population of USA in a land much smaller than most of the states of USA and yet it grows all its own food. The smiles in the pictures are most genuine and shows their natural friendliness. It is the symbol of this happy go lucky country no matter what the world sometimes wrongly portrays about Bangladesh.
T. Rahman 22-Jun-2004 08:16
I think the pictures were great and it really depicted the people and the culture of the country to some extent. I would like to thank the person who actually took time to take these beautiful photos. It really meant a lot to me, since I could find these variety of pictures of my country, put on the net. I pray and hope that one day, Bangladeshis would shine and take further steps to develop our country at a greater pace.
