“When I discovered street photography, I never saw the world the same way again. Whenever I’m out walking around, I pause, take a moment, and look at my surroundings. By connecting the things I see, I can always find a new story. Every point of view is meaningful, and what I see gradually becomes work in my own style.”

PHOTO ESSAY : SUNDRIED-SONGKHLA
TEXT & PHOTO: BARRY MACDONALD
(For Thai, press here)
It was an everyday occurrence to bump into all kinds of things being sundried on the street all over Songkhla. Chillies, pork, rice, orange peels, shrimp, fish, squid, durian husks, flowers, tea, egg shells, bread crumbs, cutlery, coffee cups, cats litter tray, clothes, solar batteries and even a prayer mat.
Sometimes there is a lot of talk about traditions and culture, but then you realise they are actually quite recent occurrences. I think sun drying is maybe one of the oldest traditions in Thailand and a link to the past and nature that really grabbed my attention. It’s not only aesthetically beautiful, but also a lovely way to see the important ingredients in the local people’s lives.
