Very nice entries Son! Cho dem PLT almost looks like cho dem Cho Ben Thanh, except for the Blue Rhino propane gas tank, which is a dead giveaway. The expression on the boy's face is priceless!
Dear TNS, Thank you for "mo*? hang\ cho*" with three beautiful entries.
As Caro said, not only can one see, but also feel the scorching heat of the summer when looking at your first photo. Nice angle with the curve of the road on the side. I also like the fact that one can see at the very far end, a little bit of the blue ocean as a refreshing element, and the flying bird as a nice little detail, the only moving thing contrasting with the whole lazy atmosphere.
I like the cuteness of the little boy's expression in your second entry, caught in the act by your mischievous camera.
Your third entry is in a league of its own. Here is my conversation with your God about it, earlier this evening.
- God: hello MC, this is TNS' God. Am I interrupting your dinner?
-me: How are you, dear God? You are not interrupting. It is very good timing, I just finished clearing the table.
-God: did you see the photo of the bird from my loyal spokesman? I could not take my eyes off it, I am so proud of my spokesman.
-me: I did, and I could not take my eyes off it either. You have good reason to be proud of him, dear God.
-God: what do you think of the picture?
-me: I can only say it in Vietnamese "mo^t. tuye^t. tac'". I don't know how to translate into English for you. Let me call my friend BiTi and ask for her help.
-God: No need to call BiTi, my child. Don't you forget, I am God, I speak all languages.
-me: I am so sorry God. It's the age, I am forgetful nowadays. Coming back to the photo, I think it is an exquisite vision: the soft light; the colors of the water, the leaves, the grass, the graceful white heron. the dark branch at the corner. The image of the lonely and pensive bird warming itself in the summer light is so poetic.
-God: I agree with you. By the way, my child, keep working hard, "co' co^ng mai\ sat', co' ngay' ne^n kim" , don't give up. I got to go now, nice talking to you. say Hi to your twin BiTi and the other PNEHs, tell them I enjoy the blog tremendously and I love their entries.
-me: it was very nice talking to you and thank you God for your good advice, I will try to remember - "co' co^ng mai` kim, co' ngay\ ne^n sat' ", and be assured that I will relay your word to BiTi and the PNEHs. Goodnight God. Please call again.
Son oi, your photos are so vibrant, just like the “Tran-nhua-song” character, I just love the picture of the white heron I saw the same white bird sometime on my way to OC, it made me thinking of many Vietnamese old stories that I love when I was a kid . MaiChau oi, you crack me up with your whimsical script play with God, I love it so much…LOL Good night sweet friends, Liem

I can hear the bird's wings flapping, feel the scorching sun and smell the BBQ aroma from here!
