Bali, wallpaper & collectors items

This gentle man climbed in a tree to cut me a coconut, showed me 

his house and shared a bit of his time. He made money with rooster fights and cutting coconuts.

He was so smiley and friendly and very proud to be photographed. He froze in the photo,

not being used to photographs. His wife had died a year earlier, leaving by himself. His house was decorated with souvenirs and old advertisements. 

When I left I gave him a kiss on the cheek.

I did not get away with just one kiss : ) 

Gili Air, shadows & geometrics and...silence

Geometrics & silence

Gili Air, Lombock - A new Island Vibe

I really got into a kind of

new island vibe on Gili Air, which is one of the Islands of Lombok. 

Abstract, a bit aloof. 

Geometrical compositions with tropical plant shadows and

coloured walls. I loved the colours. All those different greens & mints,

the black & white combined with the vibrant pastels.

A little led light in the corner.

Ubud, Bali. A royal cremation - Sarongs & Streetstyle

In August 2012 there was a big Royal cremation

in Ubud. Out of respect it was required to wear a

sarong. Traditional dress and sneakers & t-shirts.
