Everyday Scenes of How It Could Be: Bangkok

As you may have heard, there is quite a bit of flooding going on here in Bangkok. Out of curiosity, I took my bicycle out and went exploring some of the areas beside the river that are flooded. At times I was cycling through knee-deep water and at times, I was on dry roads which were free of cars. I bought some food and cycled to the top of the Pinklao bridge to watch the sunset and eat my supper. The far side of the bridge didn't meet land, rather it ended by disappearing into the water. Thus, this normally traffic-congested road-way over the river was quiet and peaceful. Quite a few people were hanging out up there- fishing off the bridge, taking photos, eating. It seemed like a park in the early evening. A few days later, a few friends and I went out to play with cameras and music in some of these newly-peaceful areas- here's what we made. It got me to imagining (not for the first time) what this city would be like if it didn't have a traffic problem. Bangkok is known for it's horrible traffic. The traffic is something that affects most every aspect of our lives here and all of our senses.
Sitting on top of that park-on-a-bridge, I began to picture different areas of the city without the automobiles that rule them. The whole feeling of the city changed; in my mind's eye, it became much more pleasant, quieter and less stressful.
So I decided to use my camera to create a few images of what it could be like rather than what it is like.
So three of these images of normally traffic-congested areas of the city are not real pictures. They are composited images, made up of 50-100 images each. Thus, using the power of modern technology, I have single-handedly solved Bangkok's traffic problem and created a bit more peace on earth... The final picture is something more sinister.
