A final visit to the island of Sri Lanka, a country packed with beautiful natural scenery, welcoming people and a beguiling culture. It was rarely difficult to find something to photograph – in fact at times there was an overwhelming amount to catch the eye.
This collection includes the Tooth Relic Temple in the city of Kandy, Wadduwa beach, the nearby village of Thalapitiya and the immaculately manicured Mackwoods tea plantation high in the central hills. You simply have to go – and make sure you’re armed with your camera.

I’d like to go back some day. But there are so many other places to see and photography, so little time!

There are always places you want to go back to. But I think life makes a choice.

What’s the next destination on your list?

Oh something quick and European. The more strange the better, like Minsk or Tirana!

Eastern Europe? I’ve never been there.

Oh, I’ve been many a time. It has a more tantalising edge to it… feels different to our part of the continent, although I suspect much of it has caught up (shame).

You’ll have to convince me on this one, Mike. I guess I’m more a Western-type of guy ;)

Oh I thought you’d treat a poor little old man like me! I think my camera would like it there (seeing as that’s where he was born).

You’ll have to find another sugar daddy for this one ;) Not only your camera would like it there, Mike…

Yeah, I’d exhausted all the possibilities of the city with a one-night stopover… Helsinki?

Yes, I could do that. I’ve been meaning to get to Vilnius for a while now but haven’t quite made it for a hattrick of Baltic capitals.

Visited Helsinki a couple of weeks ago; a really nice city.
