Anyone got vintage Koh Tao shots from the mid-late 90's? I was too slack before things turned digital! Paradise days.

Avin it Koh Phangnan stylee........

Looking at other forums I notice a lot have "pinned" images of their area. I believe this section would be useful for anybody seeking info about the Island

What are your thoughts?

Maybe we could all add our favourite shots?

Perhaps a moderator could consider pinning?

Anyway, here's my 50 cents worth to kick it off.

1)Chaweng Cove 2) Bangrak 3) Wat Pla Leam

S...edit.....

This last one is a quiz as I know where I took this panoramic photo from, but what is the name of this place?

More photos on me webpage that Kan be found on me Profile page.

i:

First one is the View point on the "Hill" (don't know it has a Name) between Ban Makham and Ban Bang Po - looking towards Ko Phangan...Second is taken through a Raja Ferry Window approaching or leaving Lipa Noi Pier....

Hi "Samuian",

Thank you very much for

First one is the View point on the "Hill"

great, will add your comments on me web-page.

Second one, was in a toilet on Raja Ferry whilst having a pee pee, just before it left with camera in hand. Pee, Pee, first and then that shot. It would have been a shame if I zoomed out of the port hole to take that lonely beach view as it would not represent Koh Samui nor Raja Ferry at all, it could have been taken anywhere……………….!!!!

Well spotted, thank you.

Yours truly,

Kan Win

I was so moved by Samuian's photo blitz that I came home tonight and have dug out a couple of my Haad Yao favourites from over the years:

the view from my 400bt bungalow every morning, Jan-Mar 2006 - you had to be up early (or home late ) to get the coconut palm shadow to point to the west (photo composition probably a reflection of how my attention to detail drops out when I'm on the island)....

sunset from the restaurant tables at Bay View resort, Jan 2008....

Ady!

[RedneckHippie]

There can never be enough pictures, they are all greatly appreciated!!

Dog attack, Bantai beach

High noon

Low tide

Reflections

Frog's last breadth

[Samuian]

"high noon" is a atmospheric phenomena!

Let 'em comin'

great stuff!

[sbk]

Nice photos Jose, but I probably would have saved the frog

Thanks SJ - below is a higher res version of that pic, along with views of Maenam from Bantai.

Colorful Moon halos are almost common here, but Sun Halos are rarer.

So true, but a couple of years ago, one in Bkk around Noon lasted for "infinity", may be 90 Minutes or so!

Here one I cought in Mae Nam years ago... it's a scan, pre-digital!

actually taken in bright daylight

Sunset Beach at ban Bang Po

[SamuiJens]

MANY thanks Jose and Samuian, it's wonderful to see when you're away from the Islands!

Hi, im new here, this is my first post. Im a hobby photographer and also doing some shoot for restaurant and interior decorations in samui. In free time i do landscape and macro shooting in samui. Here are some that i would wish to share.

#1

This was taken in BigBudha, the location is just bihind the large statue.

#2

This was taken near to the restaurant name 'My Friend'

#3

Taken in the same location as pic #2 but futher up, Its my faveroute location to watch sunsets in Samui.

#4

Cheong Mon sunrise. Quite a nice location for sunrise because of the little island few meeters from the beach.

#5

Bophud beach, this is the first beach i started shooting in Koh Samui.

[MadArt]

A friend of mine took this at the croc farm.
