Hua Takhe Old Market

This is a market place which is around 30 kilometers far away from Bangkok city. It is an old community at the edge of Klong Prawet Burirom. It has a long history dating back more than a hundred years to the reign of King Rama V. Today, the history of this community is being re-recorded with RakDok Floral Week, a festival that transforms the old market at the hip with flowers. They collaborated with shops in the old market in Hua Takhe to arrange it by bringing flowers and various fields of art to add happiness and reduce stress Fight against many of the country's current crises at the Flower Installation. I love the idea and the way they arranged it! One of the great ideas created is this boat corner! They sparked the creation by placing the boat that symbolizes the place and put it on the field of purple flowers! which i actually altered it and change the tone to be yellow!Even though they are dried flowers, they still remain beautiful. Frankly speaking, it became one of my favorite images that I have shot lately.
