Cultural North Vietnam - March 2016

One of the cultures I really like to shoot are the local people of Vietnam. There is such a diverse string of past and present, depending on where you go. The countryside has a vast number of small villages and charm while Hanoi is a surprise at every turn. On a weekend at the park, I have never seen so many cameras out taking photo's of everyone dressed to the hilt...for weddings, engagements and just for the sake of doing it. Delightful.
Also, I realize many images here, but I am also trying to tell some stories in small groups of 2 or 3 photos.
Enjoy these from my last trip to North Vietnam.
