Inside the temples at Angkor Wat, Cambodia
This is from the ancient temples at Angkor Wat in Cambodia. Such an amazing and magical place.
A Stormy Beach, Koh Lanta, Thailand
This was just before a storm in Koh Lanta, Thailand. It was the last moment between a bright sunny day and a huge dark storm. Just a shame my camera wasn't a bit better to get a higher quality photo..
Halong Bay, Vietnam
I took this before I had a digital camera so it was on a not very good film camera, not the greatest quality.
Fountains and Lights of Fez
This is from the centre of Fez, Morocco at night. It seemed like it was a spot for families to come and enjoy themselves, there's not a lot else to do in Fez at night.

Sloth!
I took this is Manzanillo in Costa Rica. The area is quite famous for the sloths that can be seen in the tree tops. After spending a few days there I hadn't seen a single one (although I did see some monkeys and various other weird insects) so I was quite disappointed. Then, just as I was waiting for the bus to arrive to leave, this little fellow came crawling out of the hedge and crossed the road, only about 10 feet away from me.
He came about one minute before the bus and held up the traffic (not that it was a busy road at all) until he had made it to the other side, including the bus. It has to be one of the most perfectly timed events in my life!

Rooftops in Granada, Nicaragua
I took this when I was a bit bored in my hotel room in Granada, Nicaragua. These are the turrets of the church I previously posted.

A funny man with an aeroplane in Panama
This is a bad quality photo but I wanted to post it up because it is so weird. I took this in Bocas Del Torro in Panama. This man had a model aeroplane with lights, propellers and wheels that was attached to a length of string and he would walk up and down the main road with it for hours. It took a while to really understand what he was doing, at fist I just thought it was a bit odd but maybe he was proud of his model plane.
It turns out that he was walking up and down the street waiting for the right gust of wind. When it came along he ran along the road dragging the plane behind him until the plane took off and flew about 20-30 feet up in the air. Of course, it didn't stay up for very long but it obviously made him quite happy.
