New: Sure thing Matt, I'll give

Sure thing Matt, I'll give you a shout in the next couple of days.

New: Thanks Lita, it's true,

Thanks Lita, it's true, photographers and reporters have suffered over the last couple of months, but my job is to try and photograph the story, not be the story.
Take care in Bangkok,
Colin

New: Fantastic work! should relate

Fantastic work! should relate how you went in , I am very interested in that. How the Thai military and others reacted to you. It seems the bigger media groups got in easily? and the freelance risked more, with the Italian reporter getting killed.

New: Love your work in this set

Love your work in this set Colin. Sending an email with my mobile number - meet up sometime?
