  1. Superbes portraits baignés de lumière iodée! Coup de coeur pour la seconde!

  2. Nice series of photos. It seems that every country has its popular beach for the locals and tourists.

  3. You have reminded me of a similar construction in Amsterdam, Jean, that says « Iamsterdam, » all in white except for the Iam in red at the beginning. A perfect tourist « trap » which no one can resist. I love it!

    1. I must recognise that we find everywhere in Southeast Asia, this kind of large letters as a sign of welcome, especially in Indonesia.

      I like it a lot too.

    1. Yes… children gather around these large letters and seek to be photographed or offer you the opposite, by photographing you with your own smartphone, for example.
      Bonne journée.

  4. Coucou Jean,
    3 petits enfants bien sympathiques pour agrémenter ce billet. Le bleu de l’inscription est très joli et vient se marier avec la couleur de la mer. Je te souhaite un bon début de semaine. Bien amicalement.

    1. Many children in this country, most often from poor and even very poor families, but who keep smiling despite this…
      Bonne journée chère Ruthie.

  5. In Amsterdam you also have these large letters and hearts, you have photographed the children from playful positions. A lovely portrait series as a result.

    1. Yes, it is, there are now in Southeast Asia, particularly in Indonesia large letters, with a heart where tourists like to be photographed in memory of their trip.

      Thank you for your visit and your loyalty.

  6. C’est une belle et grande enseigne sculptée, Jean… et les gens semblent aimer se faire photographier dans le grand cœur…

    Merci pour tous vos commentaires sur mon site photo aujourd’hui….peter/pierre:)

    1. Oui, exactement c’est une belle et grande enseigne ou les enfants surtout, profitent de l’occasion pour se faire photographier.
      Bonne journée Peter et merci pour ta fidélité.

    1. IThey live in a house right next to its large welcome letters and enjoy it widely; systematically taking the pose to satisfy local tourists, in large numbers who stop.

      (Very, very few international tourists, currently)
