Photographer's Note
Please open each photo in a new tab for the better versions.
As I've mentioned in recent postings we managed to be in Hue during floods and the only way around areas near the river was to get out and wade through the water.
It is obvious that Hue does get flooded on a regular basis as these 3 photos show with people getting on with their normal business.
Go to the WS for the other 2 photos.

"Normal busines"? living and wade through water in such a flooded area is not normal, Ian.
Unfortunately, many low terrain areas in our planet will suffer in future from such a phenomenon.
Anyway, a good capture in all three posts.
Good afternoon,
Ike

Pozdrav.
Interesantan pogled i trenutak, dobar tekst ...
Velika voda je poplavila grad, dobro pokazano sa lepim bojama, kontrastom, perspektivom i uhvacenim trenutkom.
Dobar rad sa fotografijama u radionici.
Klima se mnogo promenila, sve je vise poplava i pozara.
Zelim vam sve najbolje u novom mesecu koji je poceo.

Hello Ian,
Three excellent photos about everyday life during the difficult days of flooding.
The people make the best of the situation.
Similar scenes I once saw in India.
Your second photo in the WS also shows the typical buildings I saw in Vietnamese cities.
I've heard several times that there is not a single month of the year when you can travel across the country without rainfall.
Best regards, Paul

Hello Ian,
Global heating and more frequent extreme weather doesn't bode well for Hue. These photos are unpleasantly fascinating. They are all well taken but rather scary.

Hi Ian,
You have cqaptured well a daily life scene. The point of view is showing the people moving through the water and also the same for the cars. The light is giving good colors output. Have a nice day.

Hello Ian,
What you say is absolutely true. These people, accustomed to regular floods, just get on with their daily lives. Floods in our country cause major problems, with travel conditions and damage to homes. Some houses cannot obtain insurance because of their location on flood plains!
Your trio of photographs just show how life goes on!
My warm regards,
Bev :-)

Hello again,
Sensational shot. I don't know how can they act so regularly in such circumstances. I would afraid of disappearing in a hole or something.
Best Wishes,
Gy.

Hi Ian,
The people seem to be taking the flood in their stride, all just walking/riding/driving through the water as if this sort of thing happens every day. Great sharpness and exposure, and a good slice of everyday life here.

Hello Ian.
A surprising photo that is difficult for us to assimilate into our European mentality and is to see all these people who move as if nothing like the traffic in the street flooded with water.
Well done. I like it.
I wish you a pleasant week.
Very best regards.
Luis.

Hello Ian,
It's amazing what people put up with as normal. And we thought New Orleans' location was chosen poorly.

Hi Ian,
From your photo, it appears that you visited Vietnam during the rainy season. From the note we learn that flooding is not something new and people have to deal with it somehow.
Great daily life picture with perfect quality.
Best regards,
Zbigniew
