7-Day Black & White Photography Challenge
Posted onI was recently set a challenge by my friend and colleague, Stephan Audiger. Ordinarily, I don’t partake in these kinds of Facebook activities.

Casa Marocc Hotel by Andacura
Posted onIn recent weeks, I’ve been up and down Thailand from end to end twice. My first trip up to Chiang Mai was to see Loy Krathong, which I wrote about in my last piece.

Quite frankly, everything is better in Chiang Mai and it is undoubtedly my favourite part of the country.

It was for a photography workshop, which was a lot of fun and I will probably write about some time soon. One of the two nights was spent in the Lanna Dusita Boutique Resort (by Andacura Hotels & Resorts), which is what I’m going to be writing about now. So, without further ado…
