Burmese Days : more transport



Some of the most interesting photographic subjects are the various resourceful and imaginative, picturesque transport vehicles. Never a large empty limousine with a lonely driver - every inch is always put to good use.

Since the "opening" of Burma a few years ago, the number of cars  and motorcycles has risen dramatically, mostly due to Japanese used-car imports that have their steering wheel on the wrong side of the road. Yangon and Mandalay, the two largest cities with over 5 Mio  people and 1,5 Mio resp., have quite a few back-ups like any modern city. This is a nightly impression of a motorcycle mêlée that I took out of the bus window making in-camera image overlays.
