Kathmandu guesthouse

Early morning wake up at the Kathmandu guest house for mountain flights. Canceled 3 times due to bad weather. I thought November had clear skies? On the bed, under the covers, staring at the fan. Condensation running down the window.

Nepal eating

Breakfast on Nagarkot. Tibetan bread, honey, re-fried potato and onions and freshly pressed apple juice. En plein air.
 

More of this Pop canned drink. This time with peeled grapes in it!

Croissant with cheese grilled. Fried potato and tomato. 

Lime and soda. A favorite on my Asian trips.

 Lemon soda, garlic naan, aloo paratha, basmati rice, aloo dum banarasi...

Orchard Road lights

Burnished Brass

These shoes remined me of the metal green colouring of a moth that I used to find in our garden as a kid. Burnished Brass (Diachrysia chrysitis). So I bought them...

Singapore signs

I liked this sign so much that I bought the t-shirt.

Evening rush hour shot from the back seat of the bus. 

Friendly bar waiter on Ann Siang Hill showing off his hand tattoos for a tourist with a camera phone. What a great night we had there.

Shot whilst shoe shopping in Singapore. Try saying that several times, as quickly as possible.

Yas Salam

On the beach in the distance a musician is sound-checking for their Yas Salam gig, to the right of the rocks there is a small green turtle swimming and in approximately 5 seconds a speed boat with music playing will pass. 25km away at Yas Marina circuit 20 Formula 1 drivers are starting their qualifying practice. It is 31 degrees Celsius.

Guppies

Colours, pattern and the fact that they are fish, make these look like an old Damien Hirst series. Guppies (Poecilia reticulata) snapped on camera phone in a hardware store. As I pushed the camera to the glass they 'swarmed' around.

Aishwarya Rai

Aishwarya Rai. Not as I expected.

Vintage Merc truck

Old cab, original wheels, new box. Would look great with an open back, or canvas rear.

1 Dihram biscuit

Tutku, the 1AED biscuit. Pas mal.

Pomegranate fizzy pop

Regional trend for pomegranate flavoured soft drinks. Sugar hit after 2hrs in the saddle at Nad Al Sheba.

No cycling

...in the Gold Souk.

Tropical garden

New house, new garden, great vegetation!

Dubai Aquarium

My favourite part of Dubai Aquarium.

HLP

Found my old Canon Eos camera. Holy Land Pros sticker on the film back cover. Memories. Belfast circa 1994.

Trick or treat?

Mitchelle's filing cabinet supplies.

Hino badge

March of the pylons

Trooping out across Nad Al Sheba to power Meydan.

Yellow right turn

Hand painted directions. Jumeriah area.

Glass sailfish
