Shwe Nan Daw Kyaung (Golden Place) Monastery, Mandalay, Myanmar This monastery was originally part of the Amarapura palace complex and was moved to Mandalay to become the apartment of King Mindon. When King Mindon died in 1878, his son, King Thibaw, had it dismantled and using mainly these materials, he built the present monastery. Upon its completion on 18 November 1883, he dedicated it to the Buddhist order. The whole building was once heavily gilt and adorned with glass mosaics and exquisite wood carvings. The building has since deteriorated greatly, but the teak wood carvings such as those depicted here (and which adorn the building exterior) remain. 8E1609.6551 Nikon D800E | Nikkor 70-200 f/2.8 VRII @ 200mm f/11 1/60s ISO150 | ...

Myanmar (formerly Burma) has become a global flashpoint as violence escalates after a military coup d'etat when the elected leader Aung San Suu Kyi and members of her National Leage For Democracy (NLD) party have been detained. Stand in solidarity with the burmese people against military dictatorship. Flag of Myanmar colored text with yellow green and red font and three finger salute creative design idea.

Colonial Yangon, with its spacious parks and lakes and mix of modern buildings and traditional wooden architecture, was known as "the garden city of the East". By the early 20th century, Yangon had public services and infrastructure on par with London. And this legacy has inspired us to create logos based on the days gone by.

The Royal Hotel at 619 Merchant Street (the corner of Merchant Street and Brooking Street) was built in 1905. It was once one the three top hotels in the city, together with the Strand and Minto Mansions and prided itself on being the "most modern", with the first electric lift of any hotel. The handsome restaurant downstairs was the scene of many historic meetings. The original owner, JW Darwood, also built the Strand Hotel (text by Lost Footsteps). Revisit the yesteryears of travel with this logo inspired by vintage hotel luggage labels.

Pyay also known as Prome is principal town of Pyay Township in the Bago Region in Burma (Myanmar). Pyay is located on the Irrawaddy River and is 260 km northwest of Rangon. The British Irrawaddy Flotilla Company established the current town in the late 19th century on the Irrawaddy River as a transshipment point for cargo between Upper and Lower Burma. This shot was taken as ox carts were unloading a boat on the river.

Young Pa'o woman at Phaung Daw Oo Paya market looking at shampoo. Pa-O people are the second largest ethnic group in Shan State. Their homeland tends to correspond with the most visited part of Shan State, the Kalaw, Pindaya and Inle lake region, although the Pa-O are also found east past Taunggyi and south into Kayah State Highland Pa-O traditional dress is highly distinctive, with the women wearing plain black or indigo tunics with narrow blue and/or red trim and brightly coloured turbans wrapped around their heads, mostly in orange and red. As with many ethnic groups, the menfolk don’t favour traditional dress too much, though you may often also see them wearing turbans in a much wider colour and pattern range.

This woman is taking a break from the market at Phaung Daw Oo Paya at Inle Lake. Another of the weekly markets. The pagoda itself houses five ancient buddha images that are not recognisable because of the layers of gold leaves stuck onto them. However, best time to visit is September.

Another Cone Fisherman. This time taken on trip across Inle lake to Maing Thauk where another market is held each week. Located on the eastern side of the Inle Lake. This village is the place of colonial era Fort Steadman whose remains now are a few crumbling gravestones near the orphanage. The village of Maing Thauk is built on both land and water, on stilts. The two halves of the villages are linked by a 450 meter long wooden bridge.

I want to have it in the morning. I want to have it at noon. I want to have it at tea-time and I certainly would like to have it before I go to bed. And it's the best after a night out or the next morning with hangover. It's noods yo!

I'm sure you've seen many of these, but I like it anyway. This is on the Bago River. As you can see one man controls the boat while the other deals with the net. I have watched fishermen on these polluted rivers many times. The size of the fish they catch are smaller than an average hand.

Sunset over Inle Lake with cone fishermen. The fishermen on Inle Lake have a really interesting way of paddling their boats. They wrap their leg around the oar and paddle that way. It is beautiful how they can glide through the water and still have use of both of their hands.

Kyaiktiyo Pagoda (also known as Golden Rock) is a well-known Buddhist pilgrimage site in Mon State, Myanmar. It is a small pagoda (7.3 metres) built on the top of a granite boulder covered with gold leaves pasted on by devotees. According to legend, the Golden Rock itself is precariously perched on a strand of the Buddha's hair. The rock and the pagoda are at the top of Mt. Kyaiktiyo. It is the third most important Buddhist pilgrimage site in Burma after the Shwedagon Pagoda and the Mahamuni Pagoda. A glimpse of the "gravity defying" Golden Rock is believed to be enough of an inspiration for any person to turn to Buddhism. Didn't turn me though. In order to get to Golden Rock you need to arrive at a small town called Kinpun at...

There is not much of interest in Kinpun itself nor for some distance around the town. However, I did come across what looked like woodcutters some distance outside Kinpun. They seem to have set up a small village in a large expanse of countryside and were just about finished cutting down all the trees in sight and turning them into firewood and charcoal. Think the land was then going to be turned into a plantation of some kind. Firewood is used a lot in Burma. See Mandalay photos.

The Pa'O are the second largest ethnic group in .Shan State,and also live in Kayin State, Kayah State, Mon State and Bago Division. They are believed to be of Tibeto-Burman stock. Migrant workers and people fleeing ongoing conflict inside Myanmar means many Pa-Oh people now live in Mae Hong Son Province, in Northern Thailand. The Pa-O people are two distinct groups - The Lowland, based around Thaton, and The Highland from Taunggyi and its surrounds. However, there may be as many as twenty-four Pa-O subgroups.
