End of the day

45 / 365
Taken whilst travelling in Thailand in 2009, this was my first sunset on Koh Tao. I was eating my chicken pad-thai, quietly confused/scared that I'd managed to go travelling alone. I was wondering when I would make friends, how much I would miss my family...then I looked up and spotted this sight. How could this not calm any worries (however momentarily!). Taken with my old Casio Exilim (wonderful little camera...survived the world, then just I fell on it one day and broke it, I was heart-broken), all I've done is straighten the horizon and add a border. Oh yes, and removed a tripod! The colours are as they were.

PP 11.04.12 - ahhh!! thanks all! :)
