To emka: emptiness
Thank you Malgo,
On Zanzibar in 1994 I first discovered the pleasure of sometimes doing nothing at all. I stayed 4-5 days in a small hotel on a beach somewhere and only walked along the completely...

To Royaldevon: ws
Thank you Bev for your comments and for taking your time to make a WS. I am certainly not offended, in fact I had made a very similar version but decided to discard it because it didn't seem to fit...

To PaulVDV: changes
Thank you Paul,
I have been to India at least a dozen times between 1972 and 2009, and there were enormous changes in those years, mostly to the better. It's not just that the pure hell of buying a...

To PaulVDV: north-south
Thank you Paul,
I think this cruel treatment of widows is (or maybe was) more common in the north. Generally over the years I have started to find southern India more pleasant than the north and the...

To jean113: choice
Thank you Jean,
It is impossible to give to everyone in need, so I usually don't give anything at all. It's a sad fact and sometimes gives me a bad conscience, but it's necessary. I realized after a...

Oh, so they are fields. I really thought they looked like strangely shaped rocks, laid out almost like a mosaic. Despite my misunderstanding it doesn't change my impression of an abstract painting in...

Hello Malgo,

Yes, why?

So many formerly active members have left the site in recent years, probably at a higher rate during 2020, that very few dedicated lovers of the site remain. It sometimes takes...

To PaulVDV: mumbai beach
Thanks Paul,
With "the most famous beach" of Mumbai you probably refer to Chowpatty. I have been there a few times. It's very interesting and photogenic in the late afternoons, but I wouldn't even...

Thank you Chris,
No, the 2004 tsunami hit India much further south, and of course also the Andaman and Nicobar islands.

I am sorry to make you disappointed, but when would I have had the time to visit a new country that I never showed here before? If this is not as good as some photos from Indonesia,...

People in Stockholm think of themselves as living in the "Midlands", but central Sweden, strictly geographically, is way up north.

Thank you Jorge,
You are right that the light is not good, but if I had known more about scanning and post-processing in 2008 I could have made a much better copy.
Best wishes,
