The Big Apple

Everybody loves New York City and I am no exception. Here are some photos from my USA Trip back in 2009.

Kuala Lumpur – Malaysia

Jus — Thu, 15 Jan 2009 15:19:00 +0000

Visiting Kuala Lumpur was not in my plan but because of the closure of Bangkok international airport I was forced to go to Cambodia through Kuala Lumpur (actually it was my only option). In comparison to neighbor countries, Malaysia is a wealthy country because of oil it has. There are many international banks in Kuala Lumpur and various international firms. Downtown is all about skyscrapers. The Petronas towers are probably the most known buildings in Kuala Lumpur. There are also a number of huge shopping malls in the city and I especially like the fact that you can see all the downtown by foot, because it’s not so big.

I know that everybody loves panorama shots, so here they are.

Amsterdam, NL

Jus — Wed, 29 Oct 2008 20:58:00 +0000

Amsterdam – city of narrow streets, water channels, coffeeshops, smartshops etc…. I was there for 4 days of which 2 days it was raining all day long. I went to A’dam with my friends and our main goal was to attend the F*** Me I’m Famous Party at Heineken Music Hall on 25th (and to see the City ). The party was amazing!!! (Lineup: Dirty Dutch, David Guetta, Tocadisco) On the way back we drove through Haag, Rotterdam and Bruxelles. You can expect some more photos from the Atlantic coast near Haag and some frome Rotterdam. Till then…

Coffeeshops… …flower market…

Piran Panorama

Jus — Tue, 14 Oct 2008 23:50:00 +0000

Last weekend I was in Piran. The weather was just great, but not when I arrived there. At 12AM on Saturday it was raining and I had to go to the water, yea you heard me right. I was in Piran so that I could renew my skils of diving since it has been almost 5 years since my last dive (scuba). After a successful dive I was once again confident in my skils that I will be needing this winter (you will see why;)). When I got out of the water the sun was shining and it was warm. On my way back I shot this panorama. It consists of 9 vertical shots and is 41Mpix in original size. Hope you enjoy it….

Tunisia 08 – Sidi Bou Said

Jus — Wed, 10 Sep 2008 10:03:00 +0000

As promised here it is….Tunisia – Sidi Bou Said. If you visit the capital Tunis, you must visit this small city as well. It remembers me of Greece. It has white buildings and blue windows, blue doors, blue everything. Also there is bougenvelia growing everywhere, it is amazing. Sidi Bou Said is about 17km out of Tunis, so you can take a train from center of Tunis, that’s the cheapest at around 0,6 TD (1Eur is 1,78 TD). This small city is situated right on the cliff, so the scenery is really great.

…train station in Tunis…

…narrow and steep roads…

…some shops on a main road…

…my friend Magui said that this means that the path is closed and dangerous…

NYC – part three

Jus — Sat, 26 Apr 2008 18:04:00 +0000

A few more, from the streets and above the streets. If you are living in NYC you probably don’t own a car because there is not enough space for cars in the city. I think that number of taxis is larger than the number of personal cars. The way to move around the city is the Subway system, it is fast and it is cheap.

…Times Square…

…Apple store on 5th Avenue…(open 24/7)

…Macy’s dept. store…

…in memory of 9/11…

…line for the ferry to Statue of Liberty…

… in front of UN…

…in Central Park…

… and yes Squirrels are amazing …

NYC – part two

Jus — Sat, 26 Apr 2008 17:52:00 +0000

When you are in New York your neck hurts. Why? you might ask yourself. We are not used of tall buildings and skyscrapers and the only way to see the sky or the top of the buildings you must really make an effort and look straight up It is nice to see how the new and old architecture coexists here. I must say that Manhattan island is really an interesting jungle of buildings.

…old vs. new…

… the Empire State Building…

…downtown financial center…

NYC – part one

Jus — Sat, 26 Apr 2008 17:30:00 +0000

Here it is, my reportage from NYC. I have a lot of photos to show, some of them are only shots of monuments, well known places or buildings and others have their own stories. As I said in my post earlier NYC is a great place and I would like to return “asap” … Enough was said…let me continue with the photos….

New York, New York

Jus — Sun, 20 Apr 2008 13:38:00 +0000

The city of opportunities, world financial center, the city of the biggest, longest, widest, strongest, oldest, most spectacular and I could go on (these are the words of americans living in New York….). Yes I must agree that they are quite right, it is an AMAZING city. I will definitely return here again. I was there for one week, and jet there is so much more to see, so much more to discover. I have a lot of material, but it takes ages to process those photos and to pick the good ones. When I’ll have a selection of the best photos, you will find them here, so stay tuned.

Life in Morocco

Jus — Mon, 07 Jan 2008 19:49:00 +0000

As promised the story continues. This part of the series will be about life in Morocco.

ARCHITECTURE

The only interesting thing to photograph in Agadir, besides the people…

TRANSPORTATION

I have never seen so many taxis driving around. There are taxis that drive only between the cities, than only in city centers. The majority of cars are very old, so they are quite interesting for us Europeans, while we cannot see some cars like there at home. Next thing exciting or scary is how they drive. It seem that they have no regulations. When you go somewhere with a bus or taxi your adrenaline is pumping as you are wondering (are we going to crash)…

…old Peugeot…

…katrca …

…grande taxi (long distance)…

…pimped car…:D

…in Morocco people don’t waste any empty seats…

LIFE AND PEOPLE

Life is pretty much nothing like we know it here in Europe. Everything is happening very slowly. The next photos shown here were taken in Aurir, Agadir and Marrakech.

…local men in Aurir…

Jus — Sat, 29 Sep 2007 21:00:00 +0000

After 8 or 9 hours of driving we arrived in Zermatt, Switzerland. There is some fresh snow on the mountain and we can’t wait for tommorow that we head up and start with the training/photo session …. Some more photos will folow … when I’ll have some more time…
