Here are a few shots I took in Burma last November. Definitely a country not to go for black and white in. Even the ruins look better in color.
This on was taken at the Sule Paya, a small temple in downtown Rangoon.

Parasol Vendor at the Central Market (Bogyoke Aung San market, formerly Scott Market)
Female "nuns" (novices aged 8-11) in one of the few places whose name hasn't changed, Mandalay
After the end of the rainy seasons, villages and municipal districts across the country hold traditional festivals where they donate robes and foodstuffs to the monestaries for the monks to wear. In modern times, the tradition has expanded to include things like money and cassette players. This was taken at a presentation ceremony at Bagan.

Yeah, that was actually a test shot, so it's not as straight as I would like- but when I compare it to the shot I thought would be better (without the person) it isn't nearly as good. Without a person in it, you don't get the scale f the statue. It's really, really, huge.
