One of my favorite things to do while traveling is to take roadside photographs. No, not the type where you actually stop and get out and take a photo (I do that too), but something closer to taking a photo from a moving vehicle. Usually I just end up wasting film on some random crappy blur, but since I've started using digital, rectifying mistakes is one touch of the delete button away. I'm just thankful that Bangladesh has so many traffic jams and we're moving slow enough to get a good shot so close to the action. That and my driver keeps the windows squeaky clean.
Buses in Bangladesh actually never stop. There isn't any such thing as a "bus stop" just a "bus moving slow enough so you have to do your best Carl Lewis and Jackie Joyner Kersee impression to make it on."
Lots of portraits from bus windows. Everyone likes looking out from the window seat I suppose.
Rickshaws galore. Yes, I still have that photographic infatuation with bikes and rickshaws.
Dried fish seller
Fruits galore- told you they were exotic, can't get apples, oranges, and grapes just anywhere.
