The long boats of Phi Phi Islands, Phuket, Thailand.
Warning : ALL RIGHTS RESERVED : do not use my images without my EXPLICIT permission
Traditional wooden longtail boat in a lagoon in the Phi Phi archipelago in Krabi, Southern Thailand. And this was on a cloudy, overcast day :)
Shot in 2014 on a Nikon D800 on f8 and 1/200 with pro quality 16-35mm lens, but something went wrong as the top corners are out of focus, whereas the center with the boat in the distance is sharp. it might have been an AF/lens failure (as it did completely fail less than a year later when travelling in Myanmar) or perhaps movement from the boat or just my focus error somehow. Anyhow, the shot is still pretty good and the memory priceless. How do you think?

There are six islands in the group known as Phi Phi. They lie 46 kilometres (29 miles) southeast of Phuket and are part of Hat Noppharat Thara–Mu Ko Phi Phi National Park. The national park is home to an abundance of corals and marine life. There are limestone mountains with cliffs, caves, and long white sandy beaches.
Ko Phi Phi was devastated by the Indian Ocean tsunami of December 2004, when nearly all of the island's infrastructure was destroyed.

The Phi Phi Islands (Thai: หมู่เกาะพีพี) are located in Thailand, between the large island of Phuket and the western Andaman Sea coast of the mainland. Phi Phi Don, the larger and principal of the two Phi Phi islands, is located at [show location on an interactive map] 7°44′00″N, 98°46′00″E. Both Phi Phi Don, and Phi Phi Leh, the smaller, are administratively part of Krabi province, most of which is on the mainland, and is located at [show location on an interactive map] 8°02′30″N, 98°48′39″E.
Ko Phi Phi Don ("ko" (Thai: เกาะ) meaning "island" in the Thai language) is the largest island of the group, and is the only island with permanent inhabitants, although the beaches of the second largest island, Ko Phi Phi Lee (or "Ko Phi Phi Leh"), are visited by many people as well. There are no accommodation facilities on this island, but it is just a short boat ride from Ko Phi Phi Don. The rest of the islands in the group, including Bida Nok, Bida Noi, and Bamboo Island, are not much more than large limestone rocks jutting out of the sea.
Phi Phi Don was initially populated by Muslim fishermen during the late 1940s, and later became a coconut plantation. The Thai population of Phi Phi Don remains more than 80% Muslim.But the actual population if counting laborers, especially from the north-east, from the mainland is much more Buddhist these days.
Ko Phi Phi Leh was the backdrop for the 2000 movie The Beach. Phi Phi Leh also houses the 'Viking Cave', from which there is a thriving bird's nest soup industry. There was criticism during filming of 'The Beach' that the permission granted to the film company to physically alter the environment inside Phi Phi Islands National Park was illegal. [1] The controversy cooled down however, when it was discovered that the producers had done such a decent job of restoring the place that it finally looked better than it had done before.
Following the release of The Beach, tourism on Phi Phi Don increased dramatically, and with it the population of the island. Many buildings were constructed without planning permission.[citation needed]
Ko Phi Phi was devastated by the Indian Ocean tsunami of December 2004, when nearly all of the island's infrastructure was wiped out. Redevelopment has, however, been swift, and services like electricity, water, Internet access and ATMs are up and running again, but waste handling has been slower to come back online.

Date of Original: c.1960-1961
Item Number: AGa55.8
Ordering Information: library.ndsu.edu/archives/collections-institute/photograp...
Name: Phi Raiser
Age: 25-ish
Species: Human
Bio:
Phi was born as a scavenger and spent his childhood stealing and conning to survive. But he eagerly put that life behind him when he was found by a mysterious force-user.
Now Phi is a member of the group known as the Force Followers. They, are neither Jedi or Sith. They stay away from the Dark side of the force but do not have all of the strict constrictions of the Jedi. Their, purpose in the galaxy is to keep peace without slicing people to pieces.
Eventually Phi decided to depart from the other Followers to start up a crew. His vision was to put together a crew that would take jobs with the purpose of helping others in mind.
Powers and Abilities: All of the normal force powers, except he refrains from using mind tricks. He has trained in a few self-defense styles and has force-heightened agility and senses. He also has a somewhat unique ability to tell if someone is lying.
Equipment: His electro-staff type weapon called a Lightning Staff. Though he will only use it as self defense and to simply stun his opponents.
Personality: He is rather impatient, which makes some force techniques difficult to master. He is very good at understanding other's problems and sympathizing with them, this is why he is the face of the crew. (It is unclear whether or not this ability is force-related or not, though.) He is a not a very good leader but is good at keeping the group unified. His main goal in life is to help others and put them before him.
