Dear Bloggers:
Well, we spent one nite at the Fishermans Resort and Spa and then edited and reviewed our photos from the Floating Market (http://www.bangkok.com/beyond-the-city/damnoensaduak.html) and River Ride the day before. We took in the ceramics factory and Chinese New Year Celebration today and then traveled to our next destination - Veranda Resort and Spa for TWO nights. Tomorrow we have several hours free and I am ready for a Thai Massage! This body of mine is definitely feeling the discomfort of many miles of walking, many hours of bus riding, and several boat rides on VERY hard seats.
The images I am posting today include abstracts from a wonderful ceramics factory and several from what life is like on the river. I hope to have some images from the floating market and Chinese New Year for tomorrow's post. Tomorrow we will learn more about fill-flash and raw processing.
We had a wonderful dinner at the Veranda Resort and Spa tonight(http://www.mixhotel.com/view/HuaHin/Veranda%20resort%20and%20spa-2.html ). We dined on grilled seafood and lots of Thai side dishes and sauces. We dined outside next to the infinity pool on one side and the ocean on the other.
I think I might even get a good night's sleep tonight since class doesn't start until 9...I am beginning to think there is some logic to the scheduling...work them hard and reward them at the end for work well done!
Keep your comments comming! The workshop ends on Wednesday evening with a farewell dinner. I will remain in Thailand on Thursday and then leave at 10:30 PM on Friday night, the 30th. I have found a guide named Tong who will be my escort for Thursday and Friday. Plan to do a cruise of the Klongs and visit the Grand Palace. We will also do some shopping.
Hope you are enjoying my images. Please feel free to provide feedback. Will be in touch!
I really like the sunset framed by the trees. It really gives sense of the place and time of day. All your pictures are very good! You sound like you have earned a rest and a massage!
ReplyDeleteI'm enjoying reading about your adventures and seeing a small sample of the images you're capturing. Hope the trip is everything you wanted it to be. Sounds like a lot of fun.
ReplyDeleteYour words and images are bringing back SOOO many memories of the special beauty that is Thailand (the place, the people, the sights, the sounds,the smells, the tastes). I think you will be amazed by the Grand Palace. Have you been able to interact with any special elephants?
ReplyDeleteI love the one trough the bamboo at sunrise a well...
