Just got back from an evening at Wat Ku Tao, a Shan (Thai Yai -Burmese) Temple located near Chang Puak Rd.   I was invited to go with a friend, Wit, to see the celebration for Shan New Years.  It began on Dec 6th and this was the last evening (8th).  Wow

I tried to get some shots but my camera will not take good photos in low light – Damn – I am going to get a new one after the Christmas holidays – I hope the prices will drop by then.  In any event here are a few of the shots I did manage to get.  

First was Wit, in his traditional Shan dress (rather formal): Saifah was there in great traditional Burmese dress but I could not get any shots of his outfit – he was going on stage and I missed my chance.

Sorry for the bad quality but you can still see the outfit – the place was packed, I’s say over 3-4000 there. Great entertainment, many young men, singing, food,

If you need to translate languages from web sites you don’t understand try these services:

Thai-2-English

 

This is the one I use the most but for most others:

translator2

 

covering an amazing number of languages and very good at translation – and did I mention both are FREE services.

Just got my new Intuos4 Tablet – Great, beautiful control – One less excuse for not producing great images.  Now just practice needed.

Some new images of model Wit – first is a painting using the new “mixer bristle brushes” in Photoshop.
