A new photography exhibit documenting life in Bangkok’s biggest slum. That’s the subject of my most recent Gridskipper post.
The image above — like all of the pics on display — was taken by street photographer Yoonki Kim, a Korean who lives here in Bangkok. In addition to his images from the Klongtoey slum community, his Web site contains many more exceptional photos, such as this (taken at a Tesco-Lotus store in Bangkok, I think), and this (a BTS Skytrain platform) and, best of all, this atmospheric portrait of folks on a Bangkok street.
