The following series of photographs were taken over the course of a decade while living & working in the capital city of Thailand.
Long-exposure photography or time-exposure photography involves using a long-duration shutter speed to sharply capture the stationary elements of images while blurring, smearing, or obscuring the moving elements. The paths of moving light sources become clearly visible. Wikipedia
