DSC_0726


One of the young women whom create the "offering" baskets in Ubud, which are burnt in kilns around the temples. The baskets consist mostly of flowers and banana leaves, at one point we were near the temple and a gust of wind blew most of the contents that they were trying to put into the baskets away from the area that the weavers were sitting on.

Wordless Wednesday: Ruins of West Pier, Brighton [2017]

DSC_1762.jpg


My sister Sara and I, took a trip down to Brighton for 2 days. We used to live in East Sussex and hadn't seen the city of Brighton for 14 years! This is the ruins of the West Pier which was opened in 1866, and it closed to the public in 1975 ( which was the year I was born in the town itself) due to safety reasons. Sold to a trust in 1983, it was to be 10 years later in March of 2003 that the pier suffered an arson attack, and the picture above is all that's left of this iconic structure now marked by buoys. The Victorian entrance is still standing with a restaurant and a observatory suspended on a pole to view the seafront, which is owned by British Airways.

Wordless Wednesday: Little Girl

little-girl

Many of the children in Greece are poor and busk for money from tourists, we saw many playing accordions like this little girl in Athens too. I edited this image in Adobe Camera Raw ( although you don't get all the features that ACR offer to raw file users, you can still bring a jpg file into it), cropped the image and did a bit of selective colour editing.
