Notes on taking pictures in Krabi
Thailand is a photographer’s delight. The beach scenes are unbelievable, the culture enchanting and the environment exotic. Get up early to get the best pictures, the Krabi coast has deep blue skies in the morning but it does get hazy later. Since the coast is west facing, good sunset pictures of Krabi are possible from Reilay beach, with the karst islands in the background. Remember to keep your camera well covered while in longtail boats to prevent water damage.
There are plenty of photo shops in Ao Nang and Krabi Town where you can download your digital pictures onto CD for about 100 baht, or stock up on new film. Developing is also cheap in Thailand but the quality is sometimes disappointing.
The people, with their famous Thai smile, are also good subjects for pictures. It’s polite to ask first by simply saying ‘Thai ruup dai mai krup (male), ka (female)’. Thais love taking pictures and their beloved King is a keen photographer. Often students and Thai tourists may ask you to pose with them in their pictures - please oblige. Always be mindful of respectful objects, such as Buddhas and temple grounds. They may be photographed freely, but don’t go trampling over sacred objects. You can take pictures in Krabi at will, the locals seldom mind.
