One never knows what unlikely sights will be found when wandering through the back streets of the Pak Khlong Talat market in Bangkok.

I’ve been photographing the market regularly for more than ten years and although many things have changed in that time, there’s still plenty of evidence of the daily life that makes it a fascinating place to visit.

At the end of the working day, men often find a space where they can play Sepak Takraw.

Keeping the small, rattan ball in the air without using hands requires plenty of acrobatic dexterity. Sometimes players form teams but often these casual games are simply about keeping the ball aloft for as long as possible.
