I went to a really holy place for Buddhist in Thailand it is called Kum Chanod and we had to walk on a bridge over some water to get to it. When I was walking on the path there I saw this snail crawling as fast as he could to cross the path and since I was in a holy place I had to be very careful where I was going to put me foot down because it is forbidden to kill any animal even the insects when you are in a place like this. There are not many photos from this place on the internet and almost no articles so I can’t read a about it as much as I wanted. First when I took this photo I thought to my self it would probably just look like a snapshot of a snail but when I was going through my photos in bridge and I saw this one I thought to my self that with a little help from camera raw I could make it so much batter and this is the final result. I would have gone closer but this is as close as my lens will focus but I think it would not have been as good if I had been closer because the wood around the snail makes a lot for this photo.

Finally I managed to go out and photograph and since there were so many auroras I decided to go out and experiment photographing them. After about 3 hours of driving around and trying several locations I decided to go to a place called Stoksnes because so many people photograph there during the day. Even though the road was covered with snow I took the chance of not getting stuck somewhere. When I was almost at the place I had thought of going to I saw this place and thought to my self that this would be a nice composition. The auroras were just perfect at that moment and shortly after they were almost gone or so weak that it was hard to photograph them. It is hard photographing landscape with a 50mm lens but I try my best since it’s the only one that works for my D700.

I borrowed my in-laws car and went on a small trip out of town. Everywhere surrounding Wapipathum (town I was staying in) there are rice fields and on one of the fields there were two women working. They were reorganizing the rice, everybody does this. I am not sure why but I think it is so the rice will be in a straight line so it is easier to harvest or something like that.

This is a photo of a street vendor in Bangkok.

One night I was out with my girlfriend and her friends because they were studying together until really late at night and we were in a canteen when all of a sudden in started raining really heavily I tried to show the rain but since the internet has such a bad color profile it is not as clear. I thought it was a dramatic shot showing those bikes out there in the rain.

This is from the same place as the photo on the 24th. I really enjoy photographing thai farming. Hopefully I get the opportunity to photograph it more, specially when they plant and harvest the rice.
January 28th
This is the same place as from 27th but a different angle
Well this is the last post in January more will come after this week. Until then ;)
