Thai Student Crossing the Street in Bangkok
Well it was raining really hard that day in Bangkok. Was that obvious ? 
We found a haven in a small cafe. After eating the rain was still going so we killed time by watching the streets and the people going by. This beautiful girl then crossed the street with her colored umbrella and her [...]
In theTemple of the Golden Mount (Wat Saket)
And now for something a little different… The Wat Saket (or the Golden Mount) in Bangkok is a really interesting Wat. It is located on the top of a small hill in the center of the Big Mango and it gives you a very nice view of the surroundings. Have a look here if [...]

Shooting Star
This one is a bit special. I usually don’t do much post processing on my photos. Maybe a bit of cropping, change the light, that’s pretty much it. And while I liked the topic of this picture (kids playing in the water with the plane leaving smoke traces in the sky) I wasn’t feeling [...]
Smoke
You sometimes get an interesting photography out of pretty much nothing. Take this one for instance. It was taken on the side of Gunung Cawi, the Indiana Jones-esque monument near Ubud, in Bali. I was trying to capture those two young kids making a fire when for some reason the smoke began to become intense. [...]
Lonely Woman On The Ferry
Whenever i go to Bali, i usually do this from Java Island. You can take the ferry at Banyuwangi (wich is connected by train to Surabaya. Meaning you can go all the way from Jakarta to Bali by train wich is what i usually do ). Taking the ferry is a fun thing [...]

The date of these photographs is not known : Batak Warriors Dayaks (Borneo/Kalimantan tribe) Offerings for the Melis cleaning party in Bali Three Young Women with paddles in Samarinda (Borneo / Kalimantan)
Kites in Ubud Market
I remember it was late afternoon. I had spend the day doing a bike trip along the countryside of Mount Batur and was quite tired but the lady wanted to go to Ubud Central Market (Bali, Indonesia). So there we meet and walk around. Being tired, i find a place to seat while she bargains [...]
Silhouette on Kuta Beach
Back again on Kuta beach, Bali. And once again the sunset lights gives a nice opportunity for a silhouette against the sea. I really like the lonely and fragile figure of this man, going forward into the sea.

Girl on a Scooter
We were waiting for our Nasi Goreng (fried rice in bahasa indonesia) in a little restaurant in Kuta, Bali. Out of boredoom, i reach for my camera and try to get a clear shot of the scooters passing by, playing with the Time settings. This picture is the funniest i have taken, although not the [...]
Looking up
I have to say i really like this one. This picture has been taken inside a shopping mall in Singapore (What ? There is something else to do than going to malls in Singapore ? ) wich has this beautiful “well of light”. I think i was there exactly at the right time because [...]
Shadow of A Chinese Lamp
Not much to say about this one. I was strolling around Chinatown in Singapore and decided i wanted to take a photo of one of the Chinese Lamp 
Then after some thought, i realized that the shadow of the afore mentioned lamp was really beautiful on this blue wall… So here you go, a [...]
Water Falling Upward
Back to normal activity on the blog after a not so good holiday (shit happens) . I was walking through a shopping mall in Singapore when i spotted this great fountain. There was a sort of flashing lightning with a delay that gave you the impression that water was “falling upward” toward the ceiling. It [...]
Buddha in Borobudur
Your standard Buddha picture in Borobudur. Just added some nice plant somewhere By the way, i’m currently in the area and i just heard that the last row of the building (by this i mean the top) is closed right now to the public because of the ashes from the Merapi eruption. They say [...]
Old Couple in Semarang
Another shot in Semarang. I was watching the old buildings when i saw this old couple. They were arguing a bit. I guess they have some kind of business in the open building on the left. I really like the textures and colors of these old buildings…
Going Surfing
Back once again to ol’ bali. Nothing spectacular in this picture, i just really liked the mood of the moment. I like how the two surfers silhouette against the waves. It’s been shot as always on Kuta beach.
Colonial Building in Semarang
Semarang, on Java Island has a very nice colonial quarter. Most of the buildings are in pretty bad shape but sometimes the colors are often very nice. While i’m not sure i would recommend the city to visit, this small part of town is really nice to visit, especially if you’re a photographer (and obviously, there is [...]
