Warm bustling Bangkok won my heart from the first day of my travel. Real concrete jungle. On the roofs and floors of the buildings I can see gardens of Eden in small here and there. And these sounds, the smells, the eternal summer the perpetual motion everywhere.

Now and again I badly wanted the time to linger on, so that I could remember the moment. And this has turned out possible to make thanks to Aaron, the photographer we met here, and whom I was lucky to work with within the bounds of a creative project. There were no studio and scenery. We took the pictures right at the hotel where I was staying. Just the dim lights and the urbanistic pattern assembled from hundreds of air conditioners outside.

While Aaron was taking the pictures, I was secretly viewing his old film camera, which seems to be from between 40s and 70s (there were three cameras in our disposal – two film cameras and a digital one).
