Something a bit more classic in design compared to the last few days of modern concrete and electric light…

It’s weird how often I stumble across images I don’t think I’ve shared before. In this case it’s one of Singapore and over there, centre right, you can see the funky courthouse with its weird UFO top.

It’s always interesting to see cities from high up and compare how they are compared to others in terms of overall colour. Yesterday was a section of NYC which was heavy on the blues. Today here’s a chunk of Osaka which is way more in the orange end of the scale.

This was a fairly subdued visit to NYC, unlike my most recent one which included more than one hospital stay. It was a… wild time to say the least. You can read more about that in my new book soon!

You might remember this Castle Hill area of New Zealand from the Lord of the Rings movies. I think they were in the Hobbit too. It’s so funny that I’ve been having a lot of synchronicities in my life lately. While I was on the plane from NZ to Costa Rica, I was working on this photo, and I could see the screen of the lady that was near my on the plane. When I looked up, it was the scene with the Fellowship was fighting all the Wargs.

Here’s another photo from the recent road trip. It was one of those fairly rare days with almost no wind, and I passed about a dozen lakes that were as still as mirrors.

Here’s a scene from the incredible area just near Arthur’s Pass on the South Island of New Zealand called Castle Hill. I did a road trip here last week and had a great time. Lots of great hikes and meditations!

Here’s another from deep in the archives, 2006 to be exact which I uncovered when flicking through images from my previous Costa Rican trip.
