Indian puppet

It's a puppet that Anil bought for me from India
You have to flip it upside down to see either the man or the woman
This has been bugging me for a bit now..
because they never ever get to see each other

Since my photo editing skills are almost non-existent, I wanted to see if I could use something as idiot-proof as Picasa to make a multiple exposure
so I can get both the man and woman in one picture
and pretend to myself that I gave them a chance to meet

i think i get more childish the older i get
-_-



I think it was in Bangkok that I first watched a sketch
in which a man and a woman are played by the same actor
with clever lighting and use of curtains
I went home and boasted about it;
but to my disappointment, my parents told me there used to be such plays in Burma
နွစ္ကုိယ့္တစ္စိတ္လုိ႔ ေခၚတယ္တဲ့

i just love the wordplay..

commentေရးမယ္ၾကံရင္ ေသခ်ာရိုက္ထားတဲ႔ ဓါတ္ပုံေလးေတြကို အားနာၿပီး မေရးပဲ ျပန္ျပန္သြားတယ္။
ရုပ္ေသးရုပ္ေလးေတြ သေဘာက်တယ္။ အေရာင္စုံေနတာပဲေနာ္။
ဒီထဲကမွာကုလားစုံတြဲ႕ အသားျဖဴေနတယ္။ း)

ဟုတ္တယ္.. အစ္ကုိဝမ္းကြဲက အေဖက ကုလားေလ၊ အေရာင္စုံႀကိဳက္မွန္းသိလုိ႔ ဝယ္လာေပးတာ၊

ဟိ.. အသားျဖဴတာေတာ့ ေျမာက္ပုိင္းက ျဖစ္မွာေပါ့၊ ေနာက္မွ သူ႔ကုိ ေမးၾကည့္ရဦးမယ္
