The Thailand photo thread?

Post by buksida »

How about a sticky thread for individual snap shots from around Thailand? Doesnt need to be a competition just a simple thread where people can add an image to it now and then and a small description of where it was taken.

Was talking about HHAD, many seem to be put off by the competitive nature of the competitions so this would solve it, just a simple photo thread for all to see and add to.

Sounds like a great idea. I've really enjoyed the photos from pfotoguy and you over the last couple of days.

If you do it, I think you must insist on a little bit of text to describe where the photo was taken, otherwise you could get a fantastic collection of anonymous photos, showing places people would love to visit, but won't have any clue where they are.

I agree with Big Boy. a great idea but insist on some text to make it more interesting and relevant.

I like this idea as well. I'm sure many members have pictures that might not be up to much photographically, but still informative and entertaining. I only use a very small compact camera and know nothing of photography but I have many pictures that might be useful to anyone planning a holiday.

I concur - a great idea. Where have I heard it before...? :wink:

Great idea, sometmes "normal people's" photos are better than the professional ones, and would create a lot of interest I think, especially for anyone who hasn't been to Hua Hin or Thailand before.

Although I use flickr I think it's a great idea

Local or nationwide photos with a bit of text

Great idea and as others have said, photos shown will more than likely be better and more interesting than professional ones. Lets hope this takes off. :thumb:
