“Monkey Beach” – Phi Phi Don

Posted on January 13, 2009 by Jus

The name should say it all. The beach is located on Phi Phi Don island. I stopped at Monkey Beach when I was traveling around the islands. You must watch out because the monkeys can bite you. After you have fed the monkeys with bananas don’t be surprised if they jump on you wanting more food, trust me I have seen it. They are also very intelligent, they will take stuff out of your backpack if you leave it lying on the beach.

…I really like this shot…

Diving in Thailand

Posted on January 11, 2009 by Jus

As the first part of my one month trip to SE Asia I picked Thailand. I visited the Phi Phi Islands, Phuket and some surrounding islands. My main goal were Similian islands which are one of the best possible locations for diving worldwide. I reserved a 4 day liveaboard trip to Similian islands and I must say I will definitely repeat this again some day. Scenery at Similian islands is just amazing. Islands are some 150km off the coast of Phuket island. The visibility was around 20-30m and the water temperature 29°C at the top and 27°C at 40m. I have never taken underwater photos before so this was my first time. I used IXUS 860IS and housing for it.

…abundance of fish in Phi Phi waters…

…giant clams…

…parrot fish…

…some nice corals…

…sea slug…

…marine life…

…here you can see what a flash means underwater…at 25m or so the colors are gone…

…a lot of marine life…

…sea snake…it is 10 times more poisonous than King Cobra…

…Lion fish…also very poisonous…

…Leopard shark at 40m…

Life in Koseze

Posted on August 13, 2008 by Jus

Huh. It’s been a while…there has been so much stuff going on that there was not time to post anything new. First exams on my Faculty and then well deserved holidays. I don’t have much new material because I was only enjoying summer and recharging my batteries. I’m in Ljubljana for one day and It seems that there is not much happening around. Anyway I’m gonna be going away soon for a while so this is the opportunity to post some photos.

One afternoon in Koseze…..
