The panorama view over Praslin island, taken from neighboring La Digue. A peaceful, almost magical morning that got it´s only stain from a hung over, bad humoured café owner! Honestly the Seychellois in general are very nice to get along with!

Kind of blue!
But by no means the blues.. Oh no, this is the Seychelles.
As you see I have done some street photography and visited the fish market in the capital Victoria.
One picture shows the old chinese store Sham Peng Tong that’s “been around for ages”
The photographer himself also gets the opportunity to pose beside the blue rental jeep
The three ladies with umbrellas is on the island of La Digue.
There is a green version as well
Thank´s Miles for giving me inspiration for the title!

Driving around the island of Mahe one day. This is an astonishing place on earth!
Just one more drop!
Diving, rainforests, the Indian Ocean. It´s been kind of wet lately! .. but..just one more drop!
Indian Ocean encounters.
The difference between a nice journey and an extraordinary adventure is the persons you meet!
Thank you Pierre, Adrian, Fadette, Michell, Danielle, Benjamin, Jelena, Ilyas, Anne, Martin, Christina, Peter, Billy, Tess, Jemmy and several other persons for spicing up my visit to the Seychelles

There is no such thing as..
paradise.. but The Seychelles surely comes close!
The Eco system appears to be in balance, people in general seem happy and the two Giant tortoises definitely had their moment in paradise this morning. (got my attention at breakfast doing their donkey like love noise)
The sea turtle I met yesterday when diving at the “Ave Maria” rock! White tip reef sharks often seen at that spot, but we were not lucky on this dive. Millions of other under water creatures made me happy anyway!
In one of the images you see the sun drop behind Silhouette island.
Jemmy posing at his restaurant at Grand Anse in La Digue, the smallest of the three principal islands in Sheychelles. The rhythm of life here is slow, main transportation is bicycle and ox cart.
Finally treasure island?? Well actually it´s Coco island.
Mon meyer ve. (best wishes)

Not.. another day at the office!
Indian Ocean. About 2800 km from Mumbai. 9 of February 2012
Me and the dive masters Nicole and Natasha made two visits below surface. The first one we went around the tiny island you see on the picture. Beautiful corals steaming with life!
My first attempt with the underwater house.. learning.. it’s so difficult. 95% throw aways. Smiling anyway!!
