Wandering the sidestreets of Oyster Bay in Dar es Salaam you find the Tinga Tinga Art studio, begun in the 1960s by Edward Saidi Tingatinga (tragically shot in the 1970s) originally using only bike paint on board. @tingatingaart #tanzania #africa #streetart

The Tomás Terry Theatre in Cienfuegos, Cuba, a wonderfully eclectic styled classical building in honour of Venezuelan industrialist Tomás Terry. As a Brit with a history of the comedy of Terry Thomas I couldn't resist a visit to see what a "jolly good show" might be here

Fresh mountain air. Looking over to Mont Blanc (4808m) from Flegere in the Chamonix valley and one of the many paragliders enjoying the thermals. Great views of the various climbing and hiking routes (particularly Gouter and Trois Monts) along the ridge line and the Grand Ba…

Monks walking home in the evening next to U-Bein bridge. Here with very low water in the surrounding lake opening up these old pathways. Built around 1850 and is believed to be the oldest and longest teakwood bridge in the world.

Stunning Dolomite scenery, here between Corvara and Cortina. Great fun using the huge network of via ferrata routes to climb to the tops of many of these dramatic limestone peaks

Tribal shaman and medicine man from a village near Kundiawa in the Papua New Guinea Highlands. Wearing a fabulous head-dress of shell and feathers. Well worth learning a bit of pidgin English (Tok Pisin) to make the most of a visit

A contemplative smoke. Whilst the anti-smoking campaigns have gained momentum, Smoking remains popular across the country - along with chewing betel-nut. Cheroots (cigars with the end trimmed off), from the Tamil word curuttu continue to be made by hand in many of the villag…

Inner courtyard of the Kalyan Mosque (completed c.1514), part of the Po-i-Kalyan Complex in Bukhara, Uzbekistan. A fascinating living museum city to explore on the Silk Road and key historic centre of trade, scholarship, culture, and religion.

Looking over Mer de Glace from Montenvers in the mountains behind Chamonix. Beautiful, fascinating and slightly tragic to see how far and fast the glacier has receded in the past 20 years (about 4-5 metres per year)

Mandalay is the monastic centre for Myanmar with several hundred thousand monks. Every child between 7 and 13 is expected to join a monastery for at least a few weeks. Here catching one at a break at a street bookshop.

Walking to market, across the U-Bein bridge close to Mandalay, Myanmar. Fascinating to watch dawn rise over this ancient bridge and watch snapshots of everyday life with the dawn chorus.
