Here are a few from my recent trip to the full moon party in Thailand. Unfortunately I haven't had any opportunity to touch them up yet:

And some from Angkor in Cambodia:

sunrise at Angkor Wat


a view from inside Angkor Thom



a temple overgrown with giant trees. It may be recognized from one of the 'Tomb Raider' movies.



Angkor Wat was really such an amazing place that I could probably post a hundred pics of it and they would still be interesting. In fact, I think I would have to post at least a hundred pics just to capture half of the incredible stuff I saw there. The grandeur of it is really something to be experienced. I would recommend anyone visiting Thailand or another area near Cambodia to make the trip to see it.

One more, not touched up. From the hills outside Chiang Mai in northern Thailand.

I don't think my photos can compare to some of the ones on here, but I like to share the photos that I take.

At the baptism of a friends' baby:


At Heritage Park:


Flower at Heritage Park:


And I think my all-time favourite photo of all - it just makes me laugh when I see it - Kutna Hora, Czech Republic:

It's the Gattaca soundtrack, I recognized it on the first note. One of the best of all time.

Neeper. Although this shot was taken in Bangkok, I did visit Vietnam on this trip as well. I was there during the Chinese New Year. "Chuc Mung Nam Moi" I loved your country and can't wait to return.

And tripods are pretty cheap in HK... $100HKD is like $13 Canadian (with the current exchange rate being 1 CAD = 7.5 HKD

None the less Neeper, this is still a very nice picture! I have yet to have a chance to take pictures in HK since I've been there (and will be here for almost another month) but I'll definitely take some. Did u get to take in lots of the sights?

I like this shot of my cat. He looks a little psycho in it.

These are pictures from my recent trip to Europe with my old high school choir (I was one of three alumni on the trip).

Me standing in front of St. Vitus Cathedral in the Hradcany district of Prague, Czech Republic. This is my favorite picture from the trip because it shows how huge everything is; I'm 6'6", and I'm just a little dot compared to it...


Interior shot of St. Vitus Cathedral in Prague, Czech Republic:


a statue of Mozart in the garden behind Villa Bertramka (also in Prague)


fountain in the town square of Ceske Budejovice, Czech Republic:


Mirabell garden (Salzburg, Austria):


walking tour of Salzburg:


walking tour of Vienna, Austria:


and a photo of Schonbrunn Palace from the fountain behind the palace:

From my trip to Banff to propose to my girlfriend. I'll spare you the personal photos (obviously) but here are a few of just random stuff.

Lake Minnewanka (sp?)





Some wildlife near Two Jack Lake (Sepia)
