Went to phuket with the family for 4 days. The beaches are insanely clean (the sand is absolutely perfect) and everywhere is pretty empty. Things should start picking up during high season, but seriously, if you go during the time between high and low seasons (like now), it's crazy cheap and if you're lucky you'll get good weather. If anything, it makes you realize how one wave can change everything. Change the lives of the locals, change the ecosystem, even change the kind of fish you catch in the ocean.

Sweet beaches, frothy waters, food for a month, a tee that will answer questions for you and a beauty sunset to top it off...Looks like you're having fun!

That looks like a wicked spot to skimboard!

Ya, I am with these other people, I love the water shots. Do you have a waterproof case or something because it looks like your camera is right down near the water.

norman: no... sigma 12-24 for the wide shots and a lot of timing (and guts). no protective casing.
