Vietnam’s golden waves (Source: Internet)Respect is the fastest way to beautiful, authentic images:
Always ask permission before photographing monks, hill-tribe people, or children – a smile and a simple “photo okay?” in the local language works wonders.
Dress modestly (shoulders and knees covered) when visiting temples – carry a lightweight sarong.
Remove shoes before entering homes or sacred spaces.
Avoid drone flights near temples, military areas, or without local permission.
Tip generously when granted special access (e.g., sunrise temple shoots).
