The historic city of Hoi An is a living museum. Set on the banks of a river - it's a great blend of charm and culture. The old town is closed to cars and everything is walkable. Every year during the monsoons, Hoi An can flood up to the roof beams of the houses!

In 1999, the old town was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO as a well-preserved example of a Southeast Asian trading port of the 15th to 19th centuries, with buildings that display a unique blend of local and foreign influences.

The singing dunes of Khongoryn Els are the largest and most spectacular sand dunes in all of Mongolia. They are up to a kilometer high, 20 km wide and about 100 km long.

Nothing can prepare you for Mongolia. Not even your imagination. Come here to experience the unexpected, the unseen and the unreal. You don't know what you're missing till you get into the middle of it. Check out the whole set - Mesmerizing Mongolia.

Ticket collection is a way of life across Vietnam :-) ...

The Sigma 12-24mm f/4.5-5.6 EX DG IF HSM is nicknamed the "Popeye" lens (because of its bulgy front element). It really lets you get up close within a few inches to give you amazing wide angled shots and a completely different perspective. One of the reasons why full frame rocks!

Finding empty space in a busy airport early in the morning is very difficult, especially when it is space you want to shoot. But light makes everything possible.

Dreamy siesta

There was something so peaceful and dreamy about the way this old man basked in the sun taking his afternoon nap ... right in the middle of a bustling market.

Another shot from the same day.
