Heimat - CDP Theme

Heimat is the german term chosen as the theme for March for the City Daily photo community.  It s a term difficult to explain in English, meaning homeland or where you belong, so the theme was to choose a photo that captures why you are – and want to be – in a particular city - in my case Vientiane.

I have chosen a photo from Wat Chomcheng as it is on the banks of the Mekong and the image captures the colour, the diversity the spiritual side and the daily life of Laos. Plus I love the orange of the Buddhist robes - its a colour that continually draws my attention.  

Photos from other CDP bloggers can be found here...

  2. 'On the banks of the Mekong' .. gosh that sounds like the line from a movie Mary! I love your gentle approach to the theme, the colours are amazing and that includes the rooster pecking away in the grass :)

  3. Those orange colors are really stunning. It's interesting to see them hanging on a line like that.
