Photographer's Note
Anywhere in Bangkok streets you can buy lottery tickets, Thais are almost compulsive gamblers...
for example....around 20 billion Bahts (almost 500 million US dollars)has been placed on illegal bets only during the 2006 world cup!
This woman was looking almost lovingly to her tickets...
Hope you like it

Hi Laurent,
I like it a lot as a daily life shot...it shows a lot about real Modern Thailand and what the Thai people do. Nicely done.
Cheers

Nice portrait and interesting shot!
I remember fortune tellers in Thailand, I remember some of them under an ancient banyan tree, I posted them in my Banyan theme
TFS!

Hi Laurent,
good shot of this woman who looks if she likes her work very much.
I also like the way you presented the lotterynotes.

Hi Laurent,
a good shot of the lottery lady.
She seems to be in love in her tickets.
Maybe a part of her was happy that you didn't buy any tickets (at least I guess so), so she has them still for herself. ;)
Good daily life shot of this wonderful city!

D'accord J'en prends quatre pour tenter ma chance.
L'ιtalage est bien mis en ιvidence pour attirer les flambeurs.
Bonne soirιe.

Laurent c'est un trθs beau clichι avec ce premier plan fait de billets de loterie et cette femme qui les regarde amoureusement. Le portrait est excellent de naturel.

Hallo Laurent!
A really good picture of daily life, with a lot of details! The lady's face has a rather content expression. Does she know the right number ...!?
Thank you for showing this!
Greetings from Germany!

I think she is admiring all the neat rows of tickets that she has spent so long arranging. Very good portrait and daily life image.

Nice graphic effect in this interesting photo. The dep management, with this dark BG, are nice to compose this portrait.
Well done.
