VIETNAM: People and Places

Three days in Vietnam were not enough to record such a rich mileau of people and culture.

HALONG BAY is a rustic place bustling with unique activities.

HANOI, on the other hand, is a host to a rich variety of sights and sceneries.

My camera was busy clicking here and there. Here are some of my capture of this unique place in South East Asia.

Harmony in Green	Silhouettes	Absolution	Special Delivery
Magical Dawn	Going to the School	Restrained Emotions	A New Day, A New Start
Split Personality	Raw Expectations	Serenity	Vietnamese Beauty
Lessons from History	Quartet	Gallery on the Street	The Hopes of Tomorrow
Morning Has Broken	School Recess	Towards the Future	Wisdom
Division of Labor	Solitude	Wooden Beauties	Simple Pleasures
Vietnam in Motion	Water Puppets	Parking: Vietnam Version	Trio

Dear Mr. Librodo Jr., thank you for sharing those beautiful pictures of Vietnam. I've been in Vietnam, and I've seen those places and experienced those moments; however, your discernment from the camera has definitely translated the stories. Congratulations! - Michael "NSVCD"

Thank you for your beautiful pictures. Your masterful eyes with the camera about Vietnam scenery and people are among the best. I'd wish you would take more pictures of these people in their everyday life living... Great work, Master Phuoc

Reminds me of my days in Hanoi and around Hao long Bay.

Fred		30-Dec-2005 14:39
This is stunningly beautiful work, reflecting a deft hand with your equipment and a winning way with your subjects. Your subjects are apparently connnecting with you and, through your camera, with the viewer. You are making introductions for us and, in doing so, invite us into a broader, welcoming community. Thank you.

I have enjoyed your Vietnam gallery immensely! Isn't it a wonderful place?? I myself just got back from a 17 day trip to Vietnam, and have just been posting my shots. Then I saw yours! Wonderful images! And fun to see someone else's view of the places where I have just been to. Thanks for sharing your vision with us all. Visit mine athttp://www.pbase.com/sveetzel

Wonderful portait of Vietnam! Just left me wanting MORE!

As you must have noticed previously in TE, my daughter and son are both half vietnamese, and although I don't post myself photographs of this country (perhaps I'm not ready for that yet, being a much too personal relation), I could not pass by without leaving a comment on your beautiful images. You go far beyond the simple touristic or even journalistic type of photograph. Not only your aesthetic sense of observation allows an incredibly beautiful, and personal, view on this country and its people, but you almost, sometimes, touch something that we cannot name precisely but that is strictly correlated to the soul of the living beings you photograph. Very good work.

Manuel Libres Librodo Jr.		30-Jul-2004 21:38
Hi! The technique is called panning. You follow your focus with the moving object. This was an experiment actually for me. Somehow, it worked. I don't know if it will next time. Manny

Guest		30-Jul-2004 21:15
What a STUNNING gallery!! Vietnam has always been on my list of places I'd like to visit someday... Can you tell me.... on the photoes with the movement (i.e., people riding bikes), how is it that some things are focused, and other things in the same shot show movement? (I don't know much about photography technically speaking, but am trying to learn...) Thanks.

Guest		30-Jul-2004 20:32
Well Manuel I'm thrilled to be the first to comment on this very fine gallery of very wonderful fotos. Beautiful, regal people you have captured and a wonderful atmosphere. You have a nice low camera perspective in many of the fotos which helps me to get involved on a much deeper level. Terrific gallery. Look forward to additions. Cheers, B-Real
