Sunday is badminton day. Since we will only get sun from March onwards, it’s time to play with shutter speed. #Vietnam #Hanoi #streetphotography

The #Taiwan election finishes with a call for stability, in a way. “It may be that the DPP managed to retain power because it is still viewed as the party that defends Taiwanese sovereignty, with backlash against its inability to resolve socioeconomic inequality in Taiwan still not managing to oust it from the presidency.” It comes at a cost, as outlined by @brian_hioe@mastodon.online of New Bloom magazine. Kicking out youth progressives.

Disturbing news. #Vietnam fires 21-gun salute to welcome the Indonesian President, but more salutes of other kinds may follow. The most important man in the country, General Secretary Nguyễn Phú Trọng, is not doing well. He might have surpassed that state 13 hours ago. Twitter speculates. Wikipedia declared him deceased a few hours ago, only to reverse the status. Phú Trọng has changed the country drastically in the past 10 years.

South Bronx Unite has published a nice interactive data vis about #airpollution. This is an effective way to inform and mobilise. It’s a challenge to mobilise in Hanoi. Is new data helpful in driving policy and implementation? Interestingly, the city government has just stopped all road construction to reduce air pollution during the upcoming Tet Festival. A time for roadside shopping. I even saw police men doing the rounds. www.southbronxunite.org/air-pollu…

Cleaning lady. I’ve had trouble shooting in the dark, but playing with the exposure triangle (+ zoom, histogram!) indeed helps. So this is one of my birthday shots. #streetphotography #photography #vietnam
