Yet knowing that it\u2019s an opportunity to have a conversation with photography enthusiasts from all over the world, especially Matca readers, I agreed to select and give feedback, as another photography enthusiast.<\/p>\n<p>These chosen photos do not belong to a specific category. To me, they are all good images that reflect life, issues of culture and society at the point of shooting, and also embody different perspectives and personal points of view. They are part truth, part imagination, some images look as if they were a scene from a dream. Everything was frozen in a moment, unspecified and unfinished.<\/p>\n<p>From what is already in the image, their author can totally pursue its theme by embarking on a long-term series or a photo essay.

The author took us inside a world of contrasting shadow and highlight. Immediately, viewers are drawn to two shadows printed on the bare chests of two male figures on the left. This detail is particularly intriguing. On the right, the naked Buddha symbol on the necklace of the subject creates repetition and rhythm with all these male figures. Despite being relatively small, the Buddha symbol connects visual elements of the photo and stimulates our imagination. What is shown in the photo seems like a thin line between dream and reality, as well as between objectivity and subjectivity.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/6&#8243; offset=&#8221;vc_hidden-xs&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row content_placement=&#8221;middle&#8221;][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;40px&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=&#8221;stretch_row_content_no_spaces&#8221; gap=&#8221;20&#8243; content_placement=&#8221;middle&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/6&#8243;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;4\/6&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;3533&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; add_caption=&#8221;yes&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/6&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row content_placement=&#8221;middle&#8221;][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;20px&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row content_placement=&#8221;middle&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/6&#8243; offset=&#8221;vc_hidden-xs&#8221;][vc_column_text][\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;2\/3&#8243; offset=&#8221;vc_col-xs-12&#8243;][vc_column_text]<strong>2.

With this impressive angle, composition and light, he led us to this singular scent, his chosen moment captured the emotions of all three musicians. A touch of sadness is seen on their faces, but then our eye wander and linger on the cross on the hearse behind. We can feel the melancholic melodies, smell the scent and everything drifts away following the cross as the car moves away.

Using the flash from a short distance and composing the elements like this has created visual depth as well as intensity for the closest figure on the right. This perfect moment has captured the poker faces of all subjects, emotions are all hidden, stirring the viewers\u2019 curiosity. Another thought of mine is that the photo has an intimate quality, as if the photographer was documenting his close friends.

To be honest, I have lost my interest in images about Vietnam by foreign shooters recently. However, when I saw this photograph, I really want to thank Patrick for making me feel the joy of looking at them again. I do not know why \u201cThe Last resort\u201d by Martin Parr flashed through my mind. There are not many similarities between beaches, Western feasts and Vietnam. Patrick and Parr are also different in many aspects, but the feasts that they witnessed both have a beginning and an end. Colorful canvas, messy plates and leftover food are what we see in the image, inviting interpretation from viewers. The negative space lead our eyes further into the horizon where we can escape the visual chaos in the foreground. The ambiguity of the photograph also suggests different cultural and religious meanings.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/6&#8243; offset=&#8221;vc_hidden-xs&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row content_placement=&#8221;middle&#8221;][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;40px&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=&#8221;stretch_row_content_no_spaces&#8221; gap=&#8221;20&#8243; content_placement=&#8221;middle&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/6&#8243;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;4\/6&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;3530&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; add_caption=&#8221;yes&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/6&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row content_placement=&#8221;middle&#8221;][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;20px&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row content_placement=&#8221;middle&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/6&#8243; offset=&#8221;vc_hidden-xs&#8221;][vc_column_text][\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;2\/3&#8243; offset=&#8221;vc_col-xs-12&#8243;][vc_column_text]<strong>5.

What steals our gaze right away are pieces of vibrant colors, the kind of visual materials often\u00a0seen in photographs from Middle East or West Asia.

A daily moment at a pool is composited spectacularly, creating a visually questionable image. The photograph is divided into two parts where the horizon merge with the water line. The refraction of light makes every element in the image look uncanny. The lower bodies of the subjects seem detached from the upper parts. Everything appears absurd and surreal. The unsteady waves and the blueness of swimming pool water seem to invite viewers to come and\u00a0take the plunge.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/6&#8243; offset=&#8221;vc_hidden-xs&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row content_placement=&#8221;middle&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/6&#8243; offset=&#8221;vc_hidden-xs&#8221;][vc_column_text][\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;2\/3&#8243; offset=&#8221;vc_col-xs-12&#8243;][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;40px&#8221;][vc_separator][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;20px&#8221;][vc_column_text]<em>Duong Nguyen Thanh is a street \/ documentary photographer based in Nha.
