For years, our son Adam nurtured a twin passion for gastronomy and photography. For a while, we thought he would become a professional photographer, but the pull of the kitchen proved stronger and he became a chef. Still, Adam has a distinctive “eye” and sense of composition in his photographs. The following are a sampling of i-phone photographs from the first few weeks of our Vietnamese adventure together.
