Gà Trống Đen

 

Roosters are a main feature of the streets all around Vietnam but particularly in our district - District 4 HCMC. There seems to be an unspoken rank between them. Apparently when the first rooster speaks in the morning the rest follow. This rooster is the leader as I have tried to depict him in a regal portrait style.
