allo, allo, wire we here!!, a photo from Ha Noi, Red River Delta

Photographer's Note

Allo ...

Electrical cabling gone wild & commie propaganda load speakers!! It seems to be complicated to solve communication problems.

Walking the streets of Hanoi old quarter one has to wonder how the power grid continues to function. Many of the cables have been placed illegally, with locals taking advantage of the confusing tangles to steal
power from their neighbours or commercial properties.

This means that the area is prone to power outages and blackouts, fortunately I have had no experience of such situation during my stay here.

Pozdrav.

Interesantan pogled, dobar tekst ...
Mnogo zica i stara fasada sa prozorima, dobro pokazano sa lepim bojama i kontrastom.
Sve je vise problema sa velikim brojem razno raznih kablova, samo majstori znaju cemu sluze.
Dobar rad sa lepom fotografijom u radionici.

Zelim vam lepo popodne, sve najbolje za vikend.
Paja

Hello,
Very artistic detail but those wires are an obstacle for photographers. We still have this kind of wire jungle in some parts of the cities, as an heritage from the Communist era. Anyway, interesting idea, well taken.

Hello Abmdsudi,

We see this in my country not more all the wires together
An excellent daily life picture.
Sharp and clear.
Very well done, TFS.

Best regards,
John.

You see these scenes less and less often these days. Great picture, not only for the wires but also for the old time loudspeakers. And your title got me :)))

HI Abmdsudi
I've seen tangles like this in quite a few countries but this has to be one of the "best". The colours and textures of the background brick building help make this a great photo.
cheers
Ian

Hi Abmdsudi,
Impressive and well framed, too difficult to disentangle if there is a breakdown! Good sharpness, tfs.

Hello again,

I wouldn't be the mechanic who has to repair it. Would take half a day to find out which wire leads to which device. :)

Best Wishes,
Gy

Hello Abmdsudi, the close up of the tangle of cables seems to emphasise just how tangled they are!
I like the composition with the blue lamp and speakers off to one side.
The background of decaying building completes the picture for me.
This could be viewed as an abstract!
Kind regards, Jean.
