I really like this photo that I took in a Jain temple in Rajasthan and hope that you do too.

Weekly Photo Challenge: Launch
I spent half an hour around a gang of teenage boys at the ramps who were swearing and well, a bit rough around the edges. I was conscious that I had an expensive camera and found it quite intimidating. So my shots didn’t turn out very well because it was getting dark, but you can still see them launching from the ground!
After a while some of these guys came over to ask why I was taking photos. They had never been photographed in action before, can you believe it? Anyway they seemed to decide I was okay and then started to show off their skills even more. I don’t understand how manage they to turn themselves and skateboard upside down and not only land with their feet back on the board again but to do it without breaking their necks!
Weekly Photo Challenge: Between number two
Between the trees, up in the rainforest canopy, between ground and sky!
Weekly Photo Challenge: Between
My photo this week is of the Bosphorus. Between Asia and Europe, the twenty mile stretch of water links the Sea of Marmara with the Black Sea, at Istanbul. It’s a lovely place for an afternoon or evening cruise with drinks, nibbles or dinner. On both sides the architecture is outstanding, palaces, hotels, colleges and homes of the Istanbullu glitterati. Europe is to the left and Asia to the right.
Weekly Photo Challenge: Celebration
Christmas Carols Sabah style! I was really surprised to see so many Christmas celebrations on Borneo and these young people who were Carol singing in Kota Kinabalu. Photo taken by my travelling friend.
Some great interpretations of the weekly photo challenge,

Weekly Photo Challenge: Waiting
To catch to the apples
For the next breath
The right note
For the customers to arrive
For her make-up to be finished
For Cricket tea
Just a few of the things to wait for at Apple day, Cockington, Torbay. Held each October to celebrate the autumn fruit harvest. Juice is pressed in the traditional way with lots of different apple varieties on display. Once again this year the sun shone and everyone relaxed in the grounds listening to live music with Punch and Judy, a worlds worth of food choices and lots of ale and cider to taste. Kids, costumes, jam, dogs and of course lots of tempting crafts. A very happy and eventful family day out in Devon.
Weekly Photo Challenge: Family
The theme of family was a tough call for me, I came close to choosing a photo of a family I met in Kuala Lumpur. In the end, I decided to go with a very personal one that few people have seen.
I spent a long time trying to find the other half of my family who are scattered around the world. This is my brother Mitchell (Uzoamaka), the one that took me longest to track down. I knew he was there, in New Jersey, but it took several years of Facebook for him to come out of the woodwork. It took him a while to send me a photo, but now that he has I can see myself looking back at me. We have yet to meet, so I didn’t take this photo, but I hope to change that soon.

Weekly Photo Challenge: Windows
Oooh I love windows and I think I’ll post a couple more tomorrow but here’s the first. Taken in Kuala Lumpur and I don’t know why the camel is running across the window so if anyone in Malaysia does that would be great!
