Boyfriend

Yep, this is mine. Constantly attached to the computer, even when we are vacationing in the beautiful Thai islands.

Just kidding, he really isn't that bad. Perhaps slightly addicted to modern technology, but then, who isn't?

Baby Tiger

The face of a two month old tiger. Still kind of fierce, though. About the same size as a housecat at this age, and they are very well socialized so that you can play with them in about the same way. We fed them from a bottle and played with them.

Tigers attack from behind, so these little guys kept sneaking up on me and attacking my skirt. So now I can say that I've been attacked by a tiger and lived to tell the tale.

(All these tiger pictures were taken at the tiger temple in Kanchanaburi. You can go live there for a month and work with the tigers if you take the time to fill out an application. I would love to!)

Moss

A tree outside our bungalow on Koh Chang. As I was taking this picture, I got a couple of those 'What is she taking a picture of?' looks, I think you may know the looks I mean.

Before the Storm

We were outside Kanchanaburi, on our way from the last waterfall to the famous Bridge Over the River Kwai when the light suddenly became amazing. And it started to rain. Since we were in the back of a songtaew, which has uncovered sides, our driver got out and started to roll down the rain flaps.

Spurred by Evan's encouragement, I hopped out of the songtaew and grabbed a couple of shots. This doesn't even do justice to how beautiful the light was for that 15 minutes before the rain started to pour down in buckets.

As the sky was a lot lighter than the grass, I lightened the grass in Lightroom, but I think it is too noisy to make a print of. Wish I had an ND grad filter!

(Evan would like me to ask you all a little question. He also took a stab at processing the image in Lightroom, and he thinks he did a better job. For your viewing pleasure, here is the original where you can see how dark the grass initially was, hence the noise, and Evan's version, which is certainly more dramatic than mine. Feel free to tell me which one you like best, and if it isn't mine, I won't hate you. I would like to add that the sky was really quite orange, and both Evan and my versions are closer to the what we saw than the raw file is.)

Tiger Tiger

Have a gander at those claws!

Attack!

Whew! Watch out.
