love that in b&w ...
Thanks!
it has a film noir feel to it ...
I would love to go to Thailand and Vietnam some day. This place where I get my nails done they show scenes of Vietnam on their TV screens.
my sister went by herself to thailand 2 decades ago to pet/ride the elephants. she had to cut her trip short because she was so traumatized by the poverty she witnessed. I've had 3 acquaintances retire there in the last decade and never heard from them again. one of my friends has a vietnamese wife with dual citizenship and he plans on retiring in vietnam. whenever we talk I always ask him when we're leaving ...
You should. They are both great places to visit.
I have known a few people who been to one or both countries. In every case they highly recommended visits there!
I almost won a free trip to south vietnam back in the early 70's ...
You're lucky you missed that.

I consider your Bangkok Palace image to be a perfect photo.
Thank you very much.

Are those all from the area where you live?
Actuallly they are all more or less from the area where we originally lived, in the Zhengzhou, Henan Province area which is farther north.
Awesome collection!
Thanks.

That is very beautiful. Really nice.
Thank you
Another beautiful butterfly creation.
Thank you!
Random stuff. Spin Doctors live, Erik Schenkman on guitar with John Popper on the blues harp, flower from Alaska, and J Dog. A common practice on cruise ships is to hide rubber ducks for people to find. It has gotten completely out of hand now, with people hiding crap all over the place, mostly ducks of all kinds but on this cruise someone decided to also hide a bunch of Jesuses. I found one and made it a point to include him in a dozen photos at fun places. My wife takes our trip photos and makes a photo book for memories. This one was included a lot of J Dog cameos.
Nostalgia is in style these days, and that's quite a collection of it.
Cool photos.
Arvo.. ahhh Spring is in the air at last..blue sky and sun..birds busy building nests and the wattle is getting ready to come out..🐨
Summer next, sun, sand and surf..you beauty..
Even the cat is getting into the swing of things..🐾🐾
Hi shona. It looks like you live in a very nice spot, but do you have kangaroos? Americans want to know!
Evening G...yes roos live about 2 kms away from me.. occasionally they will come into town but normally stay out in the bush..
I have had 3 Wallabies go past my house since I have lived here.. just hopping down the road...
I get koalas in my front and backyard...they go in the tall gumtree on the left of the photo..they use it as a sleeping tree as it is not the right type of gumtree they eat..
This male was in my backyard in the tree a few weeks ago..
Awesome.
superfluous commentary unnecessary ...
Morning...yep that's exactly what we think of Halloween..🤣
A few pics from my trip to Niagara Falls over the weekend. I'm no photographer, just some plain snapshots...
Those are great photos.
Not sure how that last one snuck in there.
a bloody mary with a buffalo wing garnish ... nice!
It made ME smile, and I'm sure others smiled as well.
Morning Frosty..well at least it hasn't got a pickle in it.. yet!
Love the photos...no wonder you don't have much hope if you fall into the water..
Wonder how my surf mat would go in there..😁
anywhere above the falls, but a barrel is the traditional means of conveyance to go over them ...
Barrels are for wuzzies...
Surf mats better..you would get more bounce to the ounce..😁
good news - no crocs or sharks
bad news - that mat would be the only thing appearing out of the mist at the bottom ...
We're a tough mob..a few rocks, a bit of water and a slight drop..
She'll be apples..😁
I like it.
Closing up now. Thanks to all contributors and commenters. See you next time.
