Some Photos: Soi Cowboy Last Night

[Patna 3,802]

Using the Image > Adjustments > Variations command in Photoshop makes it very easy to achieve a quick fix to remove a colour cast.

You have very limited possiblities if using the presets, like these are a bit too green. Go to levels and play with red/green/blue highlights and midrange colors. You can do wonders but of course it's all easy in raw.

Brought my camera along to Soi Cowboy tonight

Great stuff. Plenty of Hotties there.

Bought a new camera strap yesterday, the sling type. Was out in the field testing it.

Super pictures, RhinoTusk thanks!

[harro1 256]

Thanks for the photos.

 

I see in one photo Draught beer 120฿ all night. I'm guessing everything is about 50% more expensive in Bangkok compared to Pattaya.

[RhinoTusk 4,901]

Soi Cowboy GoGos are expensive for drinking, some places now charging 180-200 baht, but there are happy hours for Suzy Wongs, Dollhouse, Tilac, and Sharks. Bar fines and short time are in line with the better Pattaya GoGos.

Those last few photos were great. You really captured the mood.

[RhinoTusk 4,901]

I'll get better with more practice. It's not easy to get candid shots without the telephoto, then I can't get sharp images because a slower shutter speed is needed to emit enough light. Also, I'm thinking of upgrading to a full frame, which would be much better for night shots.

 

I pointed at some of the Welcome 'Girls' at Cockatoo and I think they were ready to kick my ass, so I don't have any Cockatoo shots (not exactly my cup of tea, anyway).

 

 

The best spot is in front of Crazy House, the girls come out on the street half naked without panties. I saw one guy lifting up their skirts, wish I had my camera. I'm surprised it didn't cause a traffic accident on Soi 23.

Rhino, these photos would make one wonder where the land of smiles nick name was born. Excellent camera work.

[midlifecrisis 4,048]

I see the lens is warping the length of some of those "skirts". Shocking!

There are telephoto, wide angle, macro, normal, etc lenses. You have seen a prime example of the rarest of rare - the short angle lens. With modern computerized cameras, over time, we should be able to see the promised land.

 

May it be in my lifetime!

[papillon 695]

Nice to see so many good looking available girls.

[RhinoTusk 4,901]

It's quite a different scene now. All the Arab's bars were closed again last night, not so much neon. Baccara, Sharks, and Crazy House are open for business, these taken around 9:30 or so, the day after the coup.

Nice pics. I have not been down there for a few years.

[whitney 10]

Thanks for the pics RhinoTusk, they're great. Some of the welcome girls have that look towards the camera of, oh no, another guy taking my picture Oh well, they'll find out it comes with the job

It's getting hazardous. A ladyboy threw a shoe at me.

Is the bloke in the blue shirt,in the second photo of post #34,just playing up to the camera,or trying to usher you away?

 

I've noticed it's getting increasingly hostile on the street if you point a chunky camera at the hello girls,but they don't bat an eyelid if you use a camera phone or a tablet.

[ikkrang 490]

Camera phoneor tablet of course don't produce that quality and resolution. A full frame may be a little better, but even bigger and more likely to be spotted. Maybe one of the smaller mirror less cameras would be easier to escape detection.

 

I use a Fuji X100s fixed 35 mm equivalent, which because of its small size doesn't get taken srious by many people. Yet low light capacity is equal to my bulky 5 D Mk II ....

wonder if the door girls go barfine

 

As love see the arse in a thong on first girl in picture 4 Very impressive in this picture

[plahgat 523]

Nice to see so many good looking available girls.

To be honest most of the girls in the pictures are coyotes working at the Arab's bars, and if they are available be prepared to pay a premium price!

 

Plahgat

 

PS great pictures as usual, if i try to walk up to the girls that close with my camera they'll turn their backs immediately!

I take it you sit at one of the outside bars and use your camera with discretion!?

[RhinoTusk 4,901]

I used a telephoto lens and went to the Sunday matinee at Baccara today, around 6 PM, third day after the coup. All the Arab's bars still closed except for Deja Vu, which always seems to have great looking Welcome Girls.

 

[MM 6,562]

Seems the girls are smiling more now..must be short of cash.

[papillon 695]

Getting some great shots in the day light.

Ladyboy in one heel that is a funny thought
