Excellent photos Huy. Would love to go back and photograph Saigon one day (I grew up there - a very long time ago).

I liked them, especially the bridge and the two men with the baby (grandson?)

I'm sorry but you wrong , man. Saigon and Hochiminh City not the same. Today many brand-name have word "Saigon" , including state-owned companies. And use the name "Saigon" does not mean disrespect Uncle Ho. Uncle Ho is my hero, but I dont want to talk about politics here.
Hochiminh City is the new administrative unit including Saigon (district 1,2,3,4) + Cho Lon (district 5,6,11 aka "China town") + Gia Dinh (district Phu Nhuan, Tan Binh, Thu Duc, Nha Be, Hoc Mon)
Anyway, thanks you for like my photos
Cheersssss, |

#8 is sublime and brilliant. It's always interesting to see the perspective of someone who truly knows a place, and/or is from there.

1 and 8 are my picks.
Love the subtle muted colours in the #1 and the cheekiness in #8.
What Leica/lens combo were you using for these?

Great images, I especially like numbers 1, 4, 8, 9, 11, 12.
Saigon is one of those places I hope to travel to in the near future.
