The night markets in Luang Prabang, Laos, are a myriad of colours, and textures, and styles, and local influences. The tourist trail has hit now and the individuality of it is fading, but one can dare to hope it stays…
Peeking through the pillars, a relaxed buddha sees so many faces come and go day upon day. Taken in Bangkok, Thailand.
One of my favourite spots in all of Tokyo. Its such an focal point of all that is urban living. Fast paced, crowded and dense, an all-out assault on the senses. Urbanophiles will love this scene, but reagardless, the energy and cross-section of life will amaze and interest all who come

Winner Of This Weeks Challenge
This Group is devoted to the beauty of blur in images.
Sometimes blur is created by images in motion. For example, the blur is created by the panning of the camera to keep up with the motion of a car or train or bicycle flying past. Or the delicate flutter of the wings of a hummingbird or butterfly can create a blur of the wings, indicating motion. Sometimes the central subject of the image may be blurred or perhaps only the background is blurred with the main subject in sharp focus.
With all the wonderful software on the market such as Corel or Photoshop, sometimes the blur can be man-made. Soft vignetting around the outer edges of a portrait or even blur created by software plug-ins or filters can create lovely images.
The blur in an image often creates a stunning capture so the the beautiful blur is what this group is all about.
Everyone is free to join but any images that are submitted must have some blur as a part of its composition.Two Submissions Per Day, Per Person.
