No, i am not moving into astronomy photography. It’s just that my Lightroom developed a localized black hole. Where all my photos from 2010 went, and as bonus they took the main catalog with them. While downloading the pictures from…
These are the last photos from Bruxelles, a mix of black & white and color photography. As usual I am way behind in posting the photos from my trip (nothing new here). I hope you enjoy all these pictures, and…
Black and white photography can be evocative, touching, even haunting. It is said that the best photographs are those that can cut all the clutter and convey a message, a story, in a minimum of elements. And reducing a photo…
A photo challenge on Dpreview about flying (more precisely about planes – photos taken in the interior of planes). From cockpits of WW2 bombers, to business class areas on modern flights to small plane interiors there is a lot of…
The vacation within the vacation is over. My 3 day stay in Tulum is over, and now I am in Merida missing the beach. Tulum is a backpacker hangout near the Caribbean, famous for cenote diving and snorkeling, for Mayan ruins, and for…
I think I am around at the half of the trip (time does seem to fly…), so here are some quick thoughts of the trip so far. I arrived in Ciudad de Mexico – a huge great city, where I…
Yes, this is going to be a post without pictures of buildings nor Mayan ruins. The second part of the trip seems to be moving towards a more nature-orientated part. At least for the moment. Or until Chichen Itza… Welcome…
Im writing this before boarding the bus for Tulum. Another long night bus ride – 11 hours at least – ahead of me. The good part – I get to process some photos, write a bit – before and ON…
It is said that a picture is worth a thousand words…so this post should be like a small novel.
Ciudad de Mexico is…. the smell of delicious food – tortas, burritos, quesadilla, and so many more which I intend to try music – everywhere I can hear a band playing – from love songs to spanish rock colonial buildings…
Last weekend I went to Otaku 2010. Looking extremely confused at the different activities – from cosplay, drawing, console gaming – I tried to think for a reason why I am going to these events. The only reason I found…
2 weeks ago I went to a trip near Bran Castle with some work colleagues. Fun experience, and some photographic opportunities presented themselves. Almost everyone had already seen the castle, so we skipped it (however for someone who is in…
I found these photos I took last year at a manga / gaming convention. It was a really eerie experience – I could not recognize even one anime playing, nor console games played. The only familiar things were Warhammer 40k…
Tonle Sap is the largest freshwater lake in South-East Asia. As it sustains a lot of wildlife and small communities it’s a great place to visit once you get “templed out”. After the amazing temples of Angkor a change feels…
While Angkor Wat is the most famous temple complex in Cambodia, there is a huge diversity of temples in the area. I think a whole week would not be enough to visit every little temple – so everybody has to…
Chiang Mai is small town in northern Thailand, famous for the many activities one can do. From elephant riding, trekking, rafting, visiting the tiger zoo to enjoying the many markets and strolling the old town. And of course you cannot…
This is the last photo gallery from Laos – images from Luang Prabang street life, temples and life on the river. The last pictures are taken from the airplane, leaving for Siem Reap. Previous galleries from laos can be found…
Here are a few more pictures from Luang Prabang. These photos were mostly taken at the different temples in Luang Prabang. For more images you can check my previous post.
For some Laos is the “real” Asia. Of course, every country is very real. From the BTS in Bangkok to the hill tribes to relaxed Laos to crazy traffic in Hanoi. Looking for the “real” Asia (re: rice fields, fastest…
Following the last post – and as a sign of my re-found travel itch – here are some photos took last year in Vietnam. I spent only about 5 days in Vietnam, of which 3 were in Halong Bay (I…
