18. Total Lunar eclipse

This time around the moon didn't turn a bloody red as it did on 15 June 2011...

Until 15 April 2014, when the earth will mate the moon next, its goodbye to a Total Lunar Eclipse...

Good to know you are going to Bagan in Feb. I am sure you will have a superb time...

If you have any queries, do ask them here or drop me a note and I'll try my best to answer. Will be busy in the coming weeks due to work and travel commitments...

Love these Eclipse pictures. :thumbsup:

Thanks for your comments. I've had my fair share of adventures chasing eclipses. Each eclipse provides an opportunity to witness something magical and a new learning experience...

20. Lost world

Most of the pagodas in Mrauk U have fallen to neglect. The remaining standing ones atop small hillocks are in a state where nature is in the process of reclaiming, giving it all an eerie feeling of the world that's lost...

Photo #16 is very nice.

21. Simple living

The long boat journey between Sittwe and Mrauk U was very therapeutic. Lots of time for introspection and when I encountered such scenes, I couldn't help but wonder if we have over complicated our lives...
