Land, Sea (Well, Lake) and Air
Today we have a welcome opportunity to sleep a bit later. Unfortunately the Pavlovian conditioning has well and truly kicked in and I wake up at 4.43, although I do manage to get back to sleep for a bit longer … Continue reading
Capture and Visualisations
Today was not quite as restful as planned, and tummy grumbling slightly – this trip is quite hard work. That said, it’s another excellent day of photography. After an early start – quel surprise – we go back to the … Continue reading
On the Road to Mandalay
Lie in. 🙂 Until 5.35. 🙁 After breakfast we go to Bagan airport and got the flight to Mandalay, which took 25 minutes ground to ground, followed by a bus drive of well over an hour through the city to … Continue reading
Cheerfully Manic
Sunday. We started the day very early (again!), with a pre-dawn shoot at one of the temples, which ended with watching the balloons take off in the rising sun. After breakfast we went into Bagan’s main market town (Nyaung U … Continue reading
Brilliant Balloons, Terrific Temples, and a Hip-Hop Heffalump!
There’s a pattern starting to emerge for this trip: late meals, short sleeps, and then amazing visual experiences which make it all worthwhile. After a somewhat slow dinner last night and a very early alarm this morning I woke with … Continue reading
Early Starts

In the Air Again!
I’m off on my travels again – another photographic trip with Light and Land, this time to Myanmar (formerly Burma). Having recently downloaded a copy of Canned Heat’s Greatest Hits I was tempted to call this blog “On the Road … Continue reading
Enlightenment
I have to confess, this post is a conflation of two fairly separate topics, and I struggled to find a common theme, but I think I’ve just about pulled it off. Apologies if you disagree. I’m just working through some … Continue reading
A "Found" Quadtych
The blog has been looking a bit light on pictures recently. Meanwhile I’m beavering away trying to finish tidying up the Bhutan pics before I’m off to Burma in February. This morning I discovered a series of four similar close-ups … Continue reading
A Splash of Colour
No deep philosophical observations today, but with the weather swinging between cold and misty, and mild and murky, I thought it would be nice to brighten things up a bit. I’m working through the remaining shots from Bhutan, before another … Continue reading
Night-Time Photography with the Sony RX100 Mk IV
Last night was crisp, clear, cold and very still – theoretically ideal conditions for photographing the lights at Albert Dock with reflections in the water. I couldn’t get out any earlier, but did manage to take my Sony RX100 with … Continue reading
Taking the All-Round View
Apologies if it’s been a bit quiet here recently, but I’ve been submerged under a tidal wave of new (to me) technologies, and it hasn’t left much space in this bear’s brain for blogging. In the last month or so … Continue reading
