The Siamese had a few tales on how the head ended up here. One, the Burmese-Siamese civil war damaged the ancient statues. Two, the French had cut off all Buddha heads when they conquered in the late 1600s. Three, burglars had tried to steal the head but it was too heavy so they gave up and left it. And last (but not least), burglars had tried to steal the head to sell at lucrative prices but were chased by guards. To hide the head they left it in the woods. Whichever tale you believe, years upon years tree roots had overgrown the head – as if protecting it from bad intentions. / This picture was taken in the second ancient city, Ayutthya, Thailand.

Taken in Bangkok, Thailand at the Sri Mariamman Temple. This Hindu temple was built in 1860 and is dedicated to the Goddess Mariamman. There are actually other temples such as this one in Singapore, Malaysia, Sri Lanka and Vietnam. I have added it to my list of things to do, that is, visit the other temples in the world.

Taken at Wat Rakhang in Bangkok, Thailand. This temple is a little more obscure in terms of tourist attractions but what attracted me to it was the fact that it apparently had a nice collection of bells. I was pleasantly surprised to find that the temple itself was surrounded by these small chimes that rang with the waving of the wind. Even more pleasantly surprised was I when I realized that there was a class being held in the temple. What caught my eye was the traditional tattoo on the younger monks shoulder.

Taken at a market stall on Khao Sahn Road in Bangkok. A vendor was selling an array of these stuffed toys in various sizes and ferocity. I ended up picking up a Ninja doll and a lovestruck Mummy doll, both made from wrapping a human-shape figure from head to toe in string. Fun little toys that I hadn’t seen here in Oz, and this shot just looked like the last shot taken before the Monster party got completely out of control ;o)

A spectacular flowstone formation dwarfs a cave explorer in an enormous stream cave in western Thailand. The cave, Tham Lum Khao Ngu, is located in a National Park of the same name in Kanchanaburi Province west of Bangkok. The lighting is natural sunlight filtering into the cave from an upstream entrance and a karst window downstream. The caver is in the picture to give the formation scale. The picture was taken with a Nikon FM2 set on a tripod with shutter release cable and an exposure of about 2 seconds, using Kodachrome film.

Chatuchak Market – Bangkok / ...this dude was selling some cool tee’s after all the other stalls had shut up shop off a rack in the carpark. Bought one from him for 200bht and then just asked if I could take a couple of shots of him which he was very cool about. I think he was pretty keen that I got the mohawk from side on as he turned his head twice between shots – left and right, and that was it. He told me that he was into photography himself so I got his email address and sent this shot to him the other day…his reply was – “I GOT YOUR PIX. I LIKE YOUR PIX”

When I lived in Bangkok, even though I had a car, one of my favourite ways of getting around was by Tuk Tuk. Three wheeled machines that defy all laws of physics, and the road. This image was taken with a very wide lens as we sped through traffic to our destination. Lot’s of fun :<)

This is an incense burner that I bought on Koh Kred island; a small man-made island just outside of Bangkok, Thailand. It is home to the Mon community, known to be skilled potters. The island is small enough that you can go around on foot in about a couple of hours (no cars are allowed). The guide told us to walk so that the water was always to our left so that we would not lose our way. I of course realized at one point that the water was to my right … typical! In trying to find my way back, I stumbled upon this building that had pottery work as far as the eye could see. As I was taking photos, a woman grabbed my arm and lead me in to a row of four men who were spinning pottery … my own private showing!

This is one of those things that words cannot begin to describe. This particular Buddha statue is located at Wat Pho in Bangkok, Thailand. This imposing Buddha is 50 feet high and 150 feet long and made from brick and plaster and gilded in gold. The reclining pose represents the Buddha’s passage into nirvana. His feet are of mother of pearl inlays with 108 vignettes representing the 108 auspicious signs for recognizing buddha.

There is a story to many of my images and this one is no exception. I was walking around Wat Suthet which is at the base of the ‘Golden Mount’ in Bangkok. I noticed a group of monks going into the temple and decided to see why. When I got to the door I saw many monks sitting inside. I was quite excited as this type of image I had wanted to get for a long time. Quietly, I set myself up to capture the image. My camera has a silent shutter and I squeezed the button and then, with a big grin on my face, turned to leave. Whilst I had noticed the scaffolding surrounding the temple, I had forgotten all about it as I was taking the image. The crossbar of the scaffolding just outside the door was at forehead height and, you guessed it, bang. As the blow was quite painful a, relatively, loud expletive escaped my lips. I gathered my composure, dared not look back and carefully slipped away.
