Thailand has many popular shows for tourists. One of those are the crocodile wrestling shows. Some very brave men are doing a show with crocodiles, even putting their arms or head inside the crocodile mouth! The below pictures are taken at the Samphran Elephant Ground & Zoo, it is located to the west of Bangkok in Nakhon Pathom province. Its highlights are events such as The Elephant Theme Show and The Crocodile Wrestling Show.

I am transferring my photo galleries from Photoshelter to Zenfolio. I am still in the testing phase, but Zenfolio is really looking good and it is much cheaper too. My gallery on Zenfolio can be accessed at http://gallery.bkkphotography.com.
If you are interested in hosting your galleries on Zenfolio then please use my referral code J7C-R8E-AJX when signing up.
Integration with Wordpress is not that difficult. I added a link in the header template file, so users can access my gallery by clicking on Gallery in the menu. Further Zenfolio has beautiful looking slide shows, from Zenfolio just copy the code and paste it in a new page.
I was invited by the organisers to take the photos of the Munmaak Nitto coast to coast rally 2009. A car rally held in Thailand on May 9, 2009. The routing is from Hua Hin via Bangkok to Pattaya. More info about Munmaak on their website http://www.munmaak.com.

One of the greatest festivals in South East Asia is the Songkran festival. It is the celebration of the Buddhist new year. We attended the celebration in Luang Prabang in Laos this year. Great fun, many nice pictures and lots of water fights. Had to protect my camera and lenses from the water while shooting. Shot it from inside a plastic bag, put a UV filter on the lens and taped the bag to the filter.
