villagefarang Posted May 11, 2016 Author Share Posted May 11, 2016 As I said before, "I like everything about taking landscape photography. You are out getting exercise, enjoying nature and honing your senses. You have no control over the environment and can’t adjust a light or ask your model to move. It is all about being in the moment. Sometimes people just get in the way but other times they become the photo. As a change of pace I thought I would add a few of these happy accidents." I was rummaging through my archives and found a few more pictures of people. I'll start with the old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villagefarang Posted May 12, 2016 Author Share Posted May 12, 2016 I liked Phu Chi Fa before they put up all the warning signs and barriers. It was much easier to take more natural looking photos. I guess that is the price of popularity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villagefarang Posted May 14, 2016 Author Share Posted May 14, 2016 While walking the dog this morning I found my way forward blocked and several villagers at work trying to clear the soi. Several roofs were damaged as well last night. We need the rain but we could do without the wind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villagefarang Posted May 15, 2016 Author Share Posted May 15, 2016 As of yesterday this is something I see everyday. After roughly nine years in Chiang Rai we finally got around to upgrading our dining table to something a little bigger. I come from Hawaii where my father had many monkey pod bowls which he had received as gifts and awards over the years. This is basically the same kind of wood so looking at the woodgrain kind of reminds me of my father. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villagefarang Posted May 17, 2016 Author Share Posted May 17, 2016 We finally got our mountains back, so in spite of the heat, I just had to go out and breath in some fresh air on the bike today. I did make one stop at a river crossing to take a couple of photos with my iPhone. I just wish it had been like this while #Assurancetourix was visiting.

Assurancetourix Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 I had a beautiful weather and can cycle without problems; error, some slopes of " 8% " which were in reality at 28% were sometimes too difficult to climb ; often I forget I'm nearly 70 y old but less water in the rivers as on your last photo. It hope I can come again to visit your province Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villagefarang Posted May 18, 2016 Author Share Posted May 18, 2016 Thought I may as well throw in a shot of the bike. For those who want more information, Ing River shot with iPhone 6 held at arms length. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villagefarang Posted May 21, 2016 Author Share Posted May 21, 2016 No doubt these plants have been in our garden for a while but somehow they have avoided my gaze until now. Perhaps they just got moved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villagefarang Posted June 2, 2016 Author Share Posted June 2, 2016 I am guilty of looking for beauty and joy in life. I do the same thing with my pictures. I walked past our village dump today on the way to the reservoir. When I look at the dump I see the top picture where others might be drawn to what is visible in the bottom picture.

villagefarang Posted June 2, 2016 Author Share Posted June 2, 2016 Hi VF, if it's today, maybe rain this evening ? It has been raining almost everyday but mainly at night around 3am or sometimes early evening. Actually it rained last night so there were puddles on the trail.
