A forgotten Kaefer

I had a VolksWagen in Australia once, a bus though. Loved it...till the engine burned a couple of hours south of Sydney.

Moi / Chi

Never liked having my photo taken, but really do not mind bugging innocent good 'ol folks with my cameras up their faces though. Where is the best place to avoid being photographed? Yeah, behind the camera "hiding" in the viewfinder. These were taken by my wife which makes me happy cos the candid ones are the real deal, you don't want to see that crooked smile of mine. Maybe I should give her a new camera, she is using a taped-up old Canon pocket digital brother Markus threw away in Salt Lake City many years ago (Fried, and the local camera technician told him it was a classic case of f.u.b.a.r !), I took it to the Canon center in Tokyo when I came home and they fixed it in one hour, still ok as you can see.

Gulf Wave Breaker

Water and straight lines is the bomb.

EAI BareKnuckle

Beach Bunnies

Freebird

A white headed eagle, the sliver stash spirit, Harley fatboys on endless state highways, the Rockies in the background…Bump Ber car on tour. The grass is always greener on the other side.

Found this traveling circus/carnival group nomads in a corrugated shanty town a couple of weeks ago. Very sad and as always, circuses gives me the chill and pulls that dark and hopeless string of the mind. 

The Stimulator II

Stranded near the worlds 8th largest industrial zone. A true cancer producing tropical mess in the heart of South East Asia.

Don't linger in that water too long, its in our nature to fuck with nature. 

Nocturnal

Like that Pink Floyd album cover of rain drops ( on car window in my eyes) at night. This being the Changmai cityscape from above. This the local Love birds dark fumbling hangout I realized.

So close but so far away...

The Man With a Tan

Clay, concrete & metal

 You'll find them everywhere, all over South East Asia. Temples, stupas and monuments of respect and dedication to Siddhartha Gautama. Its all in the eye of the beholder and some of us see building materials shaped into beauty and art, some see supreme spiritual Buddhist denomination. As always, religion gives us some of the most fantastic, bizarre and mindblowing architecture and structures. What you make of it is up to you. I see design and hard dedicated work.

Not the Shangri-La

Like a Rolling Stone, where ever you lay your head is home.

One of the grittiest stay in recent years.

The Great Railway Bazaar

Always loved traveling by rail. And if it's on a train where the windows and doors may be opened even the better. I have had the chance (cause I took 'em) to travel on trains trough Russia, (Through Siberia, the Trans Mongolian & Trans Manchurian both directions) China (South-West-East-North-Central), India (4 month and covered most by train), South East Asia, Japan and East/West Europe (Between Turkey in the East - Portugal in the West - Sicily in the South - Sweden in the North)…and for me this is the coolest most respectable life enchanting way. There is a certain charm with the bullet express trains in Europe and Japan but hey, Im seldom in a hurry when on the road so why rush the experience? Give me a seat, a good book and if possible, a cup of black coffee and I'm a happy man.

Vegetarian Buffet

My arrangement ending up resembling vomited shit on a platter if I may say so. But this little Chinese run vegetarian buffet restaurant made you feel like you just hit a winning ticket. And I'm not even vegetarian…yet!
