C'mon man. You expect a guy to clear up the beach before he takes a shot?

This isn't National Geographic no one's getting paid or getting printed in the latest magazine.

You missed the shark he buried in the sand camera right, ready for the his supper.

IMO the detritus adds to the realism of him sat underneath a pier drinking Carlsberg Special Brew while innocent people stroll along the pier above.

Bang Saen Beach , diminishing lines and debris

Khung Wiman is the last swimming beach on the Chanthaburi coast heading northwards towards Rayong; after this it's rocky coastline and mudflats for about 30km until the north side of Phrasae

There is the main beach, about 800m, then this small bay is 'the end'. A nice spot - this pic lunchtime yesterday, safe area on a calm day for beginners/kids snorkeling around the shallow reefs

But not right now, would be like being part of a very large soup, jellyfish everywhere

DAL drinks Singha, not Carlsberg! Nice shot DAL as is GMsteen's ! ^

My ship came in... but it is beached, I won't be going anywhere Tongsala Koh Phangan!

^^^ SJ...the wait for high tide can be quite long!!....

^^ re my ship came in

there's one 'beached' like this 30km up he coast from my pic in #423

HMTS Prasae (formerly US Navy frigate Gallup PF-47) - on land at Prasae rivermouth in Rayong province

I've seen other similar pics, wonder how many of these landed ships are around the country?

There is some little irony that this ship ended up on land. It's predecessor HTMS Prasae was 'in action' in the Korean war 1951, the Thai navy managed to get lost in a snowstorm and ran it aground behind enemy lines; couldn't be dragged off the beach and had to be destroyed by the US.

It will have to be a very high tide Sunshine, it was put there a few years ago..... Ex Thai ship retired it was called the SS Koh Phangan, that's why they retired it there. .... it was originally a US ship... so going by what GoMango says there must be more around!

Speaking of high-tides... these guys better hurry up and finish the party...

Yesterday at Maenam, ferry terminal Samui...

^^^ SJ..Regarding the old USN ships around LOS...there's heaps of em.

Even more in Kampooch, mainly landing craft & old Monitors from the

SEA War Games. There's also some Russian costal patrol vessels too.

I'll have a dig through the digitised archives & see what I can post here.

I think I know that beach ^ (?) DAL....

Fishing boats resting! Tongsala KP.

I'm away from the country from Sunday till early next year, hate to go, but work's work - and must be done

I'll be back!

One last cycle ride today, tomorrow I'll give the bike a good clean, oil etc and up on the wall rack it goes under it's blanket . . . tucked up for a while

I love the coast here, always something new to see around the fishing villages and river ports, and the changes of the weather, this rest stop area on the coast highway a favourite stopping place - Paknam Khaem Nu, Chanthaburi coast

Note: That little cloud showing top left. Photo 3.05pm.

At 3.40pm black skies, electrical storm and a downpour.

Third time this week I've been caught out - I never learn - 'won't rain today'

Keep calm

For Jimmy^

Ban am Phur

Tides coming in... between Koh Ma and Maehaad, Koh Phangan

For you guys up North, it's a banana boat

The water can be clear in Pattaya bay sometimes but not often.

Low tides are useful for clam diggers... near Khao Lak.

Mines bigger than yours.......
