Congresso

May 11, 2010

As crazy as this city can be, it never ceases to amaze me just how beautiful some of the architecture is. We’ll be driving by some random neighbourhood and catch a glimpse of perfectly restored French colonial buildings. These are from Plaza Congresso.

While I was sleeping

April 8, 2010

I’m a night owl.  He’s an early bird.  I can sleep in till noon if left to my own devices.  He’s up prowling the apartment like a cat at 7.30 AM.  Sometimes he takes pictures of sunrises.  Like this morning.  I think I’ve only ever seen one, maybe two, sunrises in my life.  Once in [...]

A picture is worth a thousand words: Flying over Kunming

March 17, 2010

This is an oldie but a goodie. Way back in November 2008, a good friend and I did a 10 day trip to China. Braving dodgy, local airline companies, we made it to Kunming and Lijiang.

Finally! Gallery of August in Italy

December 12, 2009

It has taken me nearly four months, but I’ve finally uploaded a good selection from our trip through Italy in August. I’ve got to say that Italy is one of the best countries in the world. If all you had was a few weeks to explore Europe, GO TO ITALY. The history, the scenery, the [...]

On looking Brazilian in Italy

October 26, 2009

Wow, do I ever look dark in this photograph.  A month in Africa and then a month in Italy will do this to you.  I’m finally starting to get around to processing oh, about 1000 or so pictures from the last 4 months of travel.  It is hard work and really needs some time. This [...]

Gangplanks of Iguazu

October 22, 2009

This was shot just a little over a year ago when Mom and I visited Iguazu falls on the border of Brazil and Argentina. It was a perfect time to go – off season, warm and quiet. There were no crowds and we had nearly the entire park to ourselves. Waterfalls are always difficult to [...]
