Capturing Bangkok's Gritty Urban Landscape

Capturing Bangkok's Gritty Urban Landscape

Hey friends who enjoy prowling cities with cameras in hand!

Yesterday I logged nearly 13,000 steps on foot scouring Bangkok's endless sprawl. My poor sandals must be exhausted! Intent on spotlighting urban architecture, I framed up building patterns, transit arteries, and other structural scenes.

Dodging taxis and tuk-tuks, I shot angles of the layered horizontal bands of walkways and towers towering above. Zooming in on the ordinary, I found appeal in vent fans or mismatched window arrangements stacked for 20 stories. Even worn "no parking" signs resonated when isolated in frame.

I paused near a canal as the BTS overhead rail shook the street below each time it tore by. The snake-like transit line and its vertical supports carved up the blue sky, almost seeming to conduct electricity through all the dangling wires interlaced between buildings.

Later on Lightroom, I edited many images darker with lifted black levels, intensifying the city's pulsing Snippet industrial vibe in this concrete beehive. The photos spotlight patterns and textures easily missed at street levels by most.

I even had a laugh when a curbside seamstress shortened my bag strap while seated at her well-worn sewing machine. For only 20 baht and 5 minutes, my repair was complete!

Hopefully you enjoy perusing perspectives from this lengthy urban exploration. Let me know if any shots particularly resonate with your own travel moments immersed in cities' guts and unnoticed gems!

Cheers!
