This Loy Kratong pageant took place at a small, remote village in north-central Thailand. Have a peek at an annual competition that perhaps no foreigner has seen...until now.

lol, everyone likes #4. Wouldn't by chance be that (ahem) see through top Also she didn't do the old fashioned hair style so she really stands out. Put 'em all in Guess outfits and you might find some other gems in the rough there. But #4 is a beauty for sure; slender white with a slim waist and really just has it all going for her.
Around 20 contestants in all. Many are very tall, like I had stumbled into an amazon village! Just take a look at them next to the officials wearing black that are regular sized Thai girls. Some of these ladyboys are over 6' easily. Oddly, some are wearing platform shoes too. When I was walking around chatting them up a bit, it was like daaamn, huge trees in a forest. #6 is probably the sleeper of the group. She is the small, youngish girl of the bunch and you would have noticed her more if you were there. And many photos didn't turn out as well as I would have hoped, but I did the best I could with my ultra compact Canon. The one in brown is 38 years old, quite peppy and still not bad to look at and really came across well; gives a glimmer of hope to long term ladyboy relationship prospects. The one in pink speaks perfect English, giving a little spiel during the Q&A session for me! She would give the best sanook (fun) factor ; she's a treat to be around. #4 made a play for me in English during her Q&A as well, nice to be the only farang ! The little announcer pixie in black & green was quite my style . Wish I had snapped a few young ladyboys in the audience too.
Felt good to go somewhere with no cover charge, no photo fees, and even free vip access & treatment. And then it was just 10 baht to give flowers to one of your choice, you might have noticed that going on in post 4 as the locals were just showering them with flowers at one point. Well my flowers went to...#4
