Bangkok Water Photos - Thailand Tourism Pics

All photographs on this page were taken by Mike Behnken.  You can read all about his travels and living in Bangkok in the Tourism Picks Blog.  Bangkok is a city built on a swamp and the evidence you can still see.  Bangkok has many bodies of water including the Chao Phraya river, multiple canals and lakes.  All of these pictures were taken within Bangkok city limits.   Feel free to use any of these photographs as a desktop background or wallpaper.

More about the Photos & Video

These photos were the first photos I took with my new Nikon D90 with the kit lens.  I have no photography experience other than a class around 15 years ago in high school.  I am learning to use the D90 to improve the quality of my pictures as evidenced with these Bangkok at Water photos compared to the rest of the photos I took in the past with inferior point-and-shoot cameras.

The video is actually an example of time lapse photography in which I took pictures at 3 second intervals for around an hour and streamed them at 24 frames per second.  The Nikon D90 does NOT have a built intervalometer so I had to purchase a 3rd party remote timer with built in intervalometer which makes time lapse photography possible.  Satechi TR-M Remote Control which is compatible with many camera models from all the major manufacturers.
