My Gallery - Maekhamin Waterfall Trip

Mae Khamin Waterfall locates in Kanchanaburi Province, Thailand. There are beautiful 7 waterfall levels. You will see the gorgeous natural scenes while you are walking.
Note: All shots were taken by Canon EOS 400D with 18-55 kit lens.

Let's go..firstly pay entrance fee only 40 Baht ( +/- 1.5 us$).
There are 7 levels of Mea Kamin Water fall and the total distance is about 2.27 km.
I never feel tried while walking because I am stunned with nice scene around me.

I can not remember what the waterfall level name is.. : ( anyway it is nice, isn't it. The 4th water fall level names "Chat Keaw" which is the most beautiful water fall level. However, I took this photo at mid day so the strong day light did not allow me to get the great shots.

Try to take close up leaf shots but I honestly don't know what species or name of leaves are. You can see them grow up close to water fall where there is a lot of moisture.

My Gallery - Tropical Leaves

At 7:30 am, sun shone through my window. It was such a nice day after raining at night. I walked around my village with my buddy, Canon 400D, and thought about which shots I would like to take. Oh a garden behind my village might be a good place. Therefore, I walked to the garden and looked around. Wow I saw some exquisite leaves. I took some photos with my Kit 18-55. Any comments are always welcome.

My Gallery - Bird of Paradise Flower

This was a good sunny day at my home. I saw the beautiful bird of paradise flower in my garden while I was walking around my home in the morning. Wow I was stunned. I should take some photos of my bird of paradise so I decided to test my Sigma 70-300 APO CG Macro so that I took the close up photos. Please feel free to comment (You can click each photo to see a bigger photo)
