Thursday, October 22, 2009 at 11:07AM Just what it says. A late night ride on the No. 10 Line of the Beijing Subway. Relative to the subway in New York, I found the Beijing metro to be remarkably clean, efficient, and quiet, although a bit lacking in personality.

In the summer of 2006, I built a small cabin in the Catskill Mountains of New York. All made by hand (my hands). No power tools. This is what 6:07 AM looks like in October after you've crawled out of your sleeping bag and got the wood stove going.

Pontianak, West Kalimantan during peak durian season (see Where'd All Those Durian Trees Come From), and the fruits are piled up in heaps on the sidewalk. The seller is pleased that I want to take a picture of his fruit (which, indeed, is a beautiful durian), but the photo is mostly focused on my wife, Elysa, and first child, Case. This was a magical time. [NOTE: Case is currently a sophomore in college. He still has that look].

The entrance to Thanh Hoa cave at Thay Pagoda in Vietnam (see Thay Pagoda) is guarded by a scary stone dragon. The founder of Thay Pagoda, Tu Dao Hanh, meditated for long periods in this cave and he is reported to have died here as well. Just so you know. [NOTE: The green eyes are a nice touch...].

Not much to say about this image. Its early afternoon on the Ledo Road and this Kachin woman is carrying a huge basket of firewood. She is also shyly tickled that I am taking her picture. [NOTE: I really like this shot].
