    Thailand Umbrella Signs

    By JohnVogel  |  Posted July 5, 2012  |  Bangkok, Thailand
     

    CNN PRODUCER NOTE     JohnVogel Colorful umbrellas hanging in a store in Chiang Mai, Thailand, feature in this photo by iReporter John Vogel. "The weather in Thailand is quite hot, so a signage display consisting of locally crafted umbrellas fits the occasion as umbrellas are often used by Thai women to keep the sun off of their faces," he says.
    - sarahbrowngb, CNN iReport producer

    This photo is of a culturally interesting and creative display of signs for an herbal "anti-hangover" drink called Hang. A quick google-search of "hang drink Thailand" will provide the background info. on this brand of drinks. I realize that some of the words are provocative, but these words are the names of various lines of drinks in the Hang "anti-hangover" portfolio of drinks.

    I find the photo compelling due to the unique and culturally interesting qualities of this signage display.
