I didn’t have my 5dM2 when I was in London last year, so I went in the direction of poor video quality, hand held shots and quick edits. Here’s a walk through London.

Chiang Rai, Northern Thailand
February 4, 2012
Chiang Rai is home to some of the most interesting displays of art in the form of two temples – one, a place of worship, bathed in white and awash in opulence. The other, dark, a place of display for strange and sometimes erotic art, including many skulls and full-size skeletons.
The Black House (Baan Si Dum) is the home of Thailand’s famed artist Thawan Duchanee. It has been worked upon for over 30 years and is a sight to behold.
The White Temple (Wat Rong Khun) wasn’t as interesting to me, although it is visually spectacular.
I have never peed in a golden bathroom before, so I guess it wasn’t so bad.
The night market in Chiang Rai with its bugs, food, trinkets and wonderful music.
The new iPad has been leaked. Oh no!
Preparing for elephant rides.
For most of the ride, it was just us and the elephant. The mahout ditched us after a few minutes to go find bananas for this fella. I have to say – elephants are scary, but they are so lovable at the same time. How can you not love this bald little head…
The world looks pretty good when you are perched atop an elephant…
I was woefully unprepared for a hike to the waterfall. It probably wasn’t a good idea to try to clamber on to the slippery rocks.
The pottery place – Doy Din Dang.

A New York Winter (2011)
January 7, 2012
My last trip to New York was in 2008, right before Christmas and it was a very snowy winter. This year, it was snow-free and barring a couple of days when it was cold and rainy, the weather was incredibly good for walking around. These are a few pictures from all over Manhattan.

The beaches of South Thailand (Pt 2 in Color)
December 8, 2011
Continuing the series of pictures from Thailand, these are some photographs from the islands near Krabi. It was cloudy at times, but it wasn’t all in monochrome.
Low tide at Kho Poda.
Boats at Ao Nang.
Low tide at Krabi. The effect of the low tide is quite dramatic at East Krabi. A huge swath of land opens up and while it looks like it might be possible to walk on it, don’t trust it too much. I almost lost my shoes after getting my foot stuck in the slushy earth, and the slush itself was fine, almost clayey soil. It took quite a while to wash it all off.
Cave at Phra Nang. One of the rocky outcrops on the beach of Phra Nang is hollow – There are wooden stairs that lead you part of the way up where you can look out of holes in the mountain wall. The rock formations along with the colors from moss make it quite the sight.
Sunset at Ao Nang beach.
Boats at Phra Nang beach.

The beaches of South Thailand (Pt 1 in monochrome)
December 4, 2011
The beaches in Thailand usually have spectacular displays of color with the blue-green waters, white coral sands, rocky outcrops covered with greenery and the longboats with brilliantly colored sashes on the bows. However, there is more to these beaches than just color; There are variations that go beyond just sun, sky, sand and water which makes it fun to go island hopping. Here are a few images from the islands near Krabi.

San Francisco – Golden Gate Bridge
November 19, 2011
The Golden Gate bridge is probably one of the most photographed features of San Francisco. Sure, it’s majestic and unique (how many other bridges are painted International Orange?) but this is a bridge with plenty of character and looks just a little bit different every time you get to it. Maybe it’s the summer fog in San Francisco, or maybe it’s the gorgeous sunsets, but like any other super-model, there’s no angle or aspect of this bridge that hasn’t been photographed before. The only thing left to do is to show the bridge through different eyes.
These are a couple of pictures I took from Fort Point last month when the weather was good enough to show all of the bridge.

Senior shoot with Marina
May 11, 2011
A sunny-themed shoot for Marina. I never thought I’d say this, but I will miss the Arizona sun when I move out of here. The sunsets at least!
