The uninhabited, mountainous area of Lonsoraefi is carved with gullies and gorges and coloured by many rhyolitic intrusions. River crossings by cars can be tricky & precarious, especially after heavy showers, as river depths change significantly.

The light in the Galapagos Islands is really quite something - does not show it well in my pictures but it is incredible.
I was scanning some negatives from the archives last week and found this image from a motorcycle trip I took in 2001. Remi, Tinto, and I went from Danang, where we were all living, to Saigon, via the Ho Chi Minh trail through the Central Highlands. This was taken on the first day when, maybe 70 km outside of Danang, we ran into this river. The road ran parallel along the other side of it for miles and miles, but there was no bridge in sight. We knew we had to get across it, and kept asking people, whose funky country central accent threw us (Remi and I both speak Vietnamese- he better than I). It sounded like people were saying "you have to take the bridge!" And I would say, "where's the bridge?" To which they would answer, "there's no bridge! (cackle cackle cackle) Take the bridge!" I finally realized that "bridge" and "boat" rendered in the local dialect were sounding kind of similar (normally easily distinguishable). It turned out we'd passed the dock ages before. We drove back until we finally found where there was a boat that ferried people across. It was a tiny thing, but the guy insisted that we roll our three motorcycles- plus the scooter of another guy- on to the planks he'd laid out across the boat (it was only about a meter wide). We spent the trip across discussing what we would do if and when the boat tipped and we had to watch our bikes go in the drink. Luckily, that didn't happen. I shot this to commemorate our successful crossing.

Crossing at the lights in the Krasiński Square in Warsaw New Town.
The New Town of Warsaw, established by the early 15th Century, is on the one hand only new in relation to the Old Town; on the other hand, it has been almost completely rebuilt since 1954, after being almost completely destroyed by German bombardment during the Warsaw Uprising.
Indeed, it had already been rebuilt in the late 17th and early 18th Centuries in what were then the latest styles after destruction by the Swedes; its late 20th Century reconstruction after destruction by the Germans was in fidelity to the baroque period.

The black shopfront to the right is a rather pleasant pastry shop where Chris and I occasionally had breakfast. My favourite was a thing like a danish pastry but with cheese and onion and other delightful stuff.
