Preparing to leave for Asia

Next week, friday October 26th, I'm leaving for a four week holiday to travel in South-East Asia, Laos, Vietnam and Cambodia and ending up in Bangkok Thailand. One of the hightlights: meeting Kilted-Arab in Siem Reap :-)

Well I'm preparing; getting things done like visa, insurance vaccinations and so on.

Getting my bags packed...that will do the evening before.

So an oldie from the digital shoebox. This picture I took during a duty travel from Malpensa (Italy) back to Amsterdam after solving a technical problem. Empty cabin so time and space enough to get a good position for a picture. Hope you like it.

So you had a "private" flight then, Hans? Nice one from the alps, I like the wing position in this compo. A pity the cloud layer was a bit thick in some spots. Have a great holiday!

Hello Hans,

I am glad that you are travelling to Asia and I hope you will fly over Korakarams, Himalyas and Hindukash mountain ranges. Wish you a nice journey and hope to see a lot of nice pictures of Asia from your lens.

You have captured a beautiful image of the Alps, snowy atmosphere from the sky is looking fantastic. A fabulous shot from the first class window. Well done my friend.

Thanks for sharing this lovely image.

Hans,

Veel plezier op je waarschijnlijk welverdiende vakantie. Hoop dat je uitgerust en met veel foto's terugkomt. Kom later wel een bakkie doen op het Occ, moet toch de man van die mooie shots in levende lijve ontmoeten.

Bonsoir,
I wish you of all my heart that you make a good stay to visit and impregnate you landscapes, people that your beautiful travel will offer to you.
We will await you with patience to discover what our globe trotter will have to photograph and collect your impressions
For the moment, you are still there, finally almost, because you seem to have already the head in the clouds ;ODD.
This overflight of the Alps is splendid, a carpet of clouds and the snow of the mountains, is a quite pretty choice of photographs.
Beautiful clearness and colors all carefully.
Happy travel until you wait impatiently, I know it. Take care of you well!
Bisous Hansie,
Cokky

WOW! Excellent sharpness and details.
Love the colors.
have a good vacation :-)

Hello Hans !

Too bad I did not collect enough Air miles to jump with you ! I would love to join you for many good reasons! Meeting Richard will be quite fun I am sure .

TL is certainly unique to have created great friendships and relationships between many members.

Superb contrasts in this cloudy sky and snowy mountains, from your window seat.
Well done !
Robert

Hi Hans :)

Hi Han, A fine photo from the perfect POV. There will be a lot less snow than this when you land in Asia i suspect! Pleased to hear you met with Richard who i met in Singapore recently. We all admire so many of your photos and note. TFS. Murray.
