    Notting Hill Carnival is a feast of carribbean delights transported to trendy London town. With countless culinary treats, thronging crowds and music and dancing all around, it's easy to get caught up in the moment!

  • A Very Scottish Sight

    I personally haven't witnessed such sights elsewhere around the world. In remote Scottish Highlands and Islands you often run across phone booths, stations, hostels and post boxes with no obvious link to humanity but a road or a well trodden path.

  • Ruined Scottish Croft

    This is a sight that can be seen all over the landscape of the Scottish Outer Hebrides. Crofts left to ruin, often with belongings still left inside.

  • Stop!!

    I'm sure when greeted by such a sight you'd be be inclined to stop and take stock. Although the safest thing to do is probably to do a U-turn and find another route cause I don't think you're going to make sense of this anytime soon!

    The Thaipusam festival is not for the weak. However, it is a chance to see devoted families turn themselves into human pin cushions.

  • Tension

    Pulling a heavy chariot to the temple as an offering. A painful looking process.

    The capital city of Laos. Amazing seafood along the riverside, spectacular temples teeming with brightly clad monks, a decent nightlife and beautiful sunsets.
