"Samui"

Two busy street-shots from Koh Samui at night. A salesman and under an western tourist with a prostitute.

"Nightmarket"

"Nightmarket"

One of my favorite photos from Thailand. It's a night market on Koh Samui. Few tourists and not far away from this outdoor cinema as a marijuana-filled concert where people danced to local live dance-music. A fantastic evening.

I'm stil amazed that this photo became so good, because the camera - and the company - was shit.

"Thai Boxing"

It's not so dramatic as it seems. We're talking a simple show for the tourists at Koh Samui here. So I can understand that they didn't want to beat the crap out of each other for some sweaty tourists. 

Later there was a tournament for local prostitutes.

"Orange Lizard"

This cute guy/girl posed for me in Khanom. We stopped by a farmer and I fell alsleep in a chair. When I woke I saw it and prayed that it would sit there until I got the camera ready. It did.

An interesting think is these lizards say hello to you. When you meet one, it slowly nods it's head to you as an "Hi, how are you? I'm fine, and so is the wife. Please come back and visit us some time!". Something like that.

Hope I meet him again.

"Pet & Pim"

I'm one of those eco-tourists that hip newspapers-journalists hate. I just see no reason to lay on the beach and use the local people as slaves. This is rubber plantage farmer Pet with his daughter Pim. It's outside Kahnom and I remember I tried to impress my hosts by eating raw chili. 

I took this just when I arrived to the farm. It was a beautiful day and both of them has an amazing charisma. Never been able to reach them after this, but someday I hope to give them the photo.

Sadly enough this, and a lot of other photos, where taken by a not-so-good camera. But I did my best.
