With all the rain recently, i haven't been able to get out for any photography sessions. So instead i decided i would go back to my collections and pick a few to edit and post. The following set of photos were taken on my trip to thailand in jan 2011. these are a small selection of a large volume of photos i took, i was more than snap happy :)
these photos were edited in iPhoto.
Patong Beach, Phuket. Such a crowded place, but still maintains its beauty if you can get away from the hawkers trying to sell you things, offering massages, jet skiing etc. one of the highlights of the holiday was jet skiing on patong beach. So much fun.

During our stay in Chiang Mai, we visited a few Buddhist Temples. This temple was noted in Lonely planet for its sunset views and it didn't let down on the day we were there.

This photo was taken at another Buddhist temple (can't remember the names of the places)

The Chiang Mai night markets were certainly something to remember. the streets were packed with stalls as far as the eye could see and then further. The markets were selling locally made products as well as some touristy items. well worth the visit.

The photo above was straight out of camera (no editing). the colours were so vibrant already.
During our stay in Chiang Mai, we visited Tiger Kingdom. We were able to hold 3 month old tigers and pat/cuddle the bigger ones too.

We were also lucky enough to see some of the Hmong Hill Tribe people in their traditional clothing. this little fella was too cute to pass up.
So there is my little snapshot of Thailand. I'm sure there is much more to see. Definitely a place worth visiting again.
Stay tuned for the next edition of my blog which will be snapshots of Vietnam.
Cheers
Roy
