Was great being a tourist today, great lighting especially on the Effiel tower and various buildings around the city. My next blog will be food and wine.

My favorite photo so far, I think she was taking a quick break from work love all the contrast and the exhale is priceless.

Every Morning before I would go off for my hikes. I would sit at the local market in Sapa and have this for breakfast, Tofu and Pig fat. At first it took me a little time to figure out that I was eating pig fat, which would give it a little salty taste. By the end of my trip I would look forward to having this every morning. I think at the time it was around 10 cents and I would usually be the only tourist sitting with all the locals eating it.

I photographed this Hill tribe man in Yangon back when Aung San Suu Kyi was still on house arrest and would be for the next 15 years. I thought it was really interesting seeing this hill tribe man set against this weathered wall in this crazy city just taking a rest. I am guessing by his age that his tattoo's were not done in a studio and his leg tattoo's indicate he is from a hill tribe. I didn't get to experience any indigenous cultures in Myanamar as the government had closed off all travel to those parts of the country. During this time I only shot with 35mm film and a 50mm lens. I would have to get really close to my subjects to get photographs like this.
