Per Magica Ad Astra

 A fuller version of the ride from Chiang Mai to Phitsanulok through pretty typical end of rainy season weather. You would think I would have learned by now. Drenched and cold with the windchill and a ride that ended being rather expensive as the wet weather drowned the phone. For info The onboard stuff is time-lapse the rain is real not AI. My onboard camers shoots at full HD so the whole lot has been upscaled to 4K using Topaz. If you like this and my other stuff please like and subscribe on YouTube.

 Throwback and the last (probably) of the stuff about the trip Chris Jones, Ian Henry and I took to the MotoGP in Thailand this year. A quick bike on bike video of a few of the things you don't often get if you just stick you major highways as we took some smaller roads between our digs and the track for the Thai MotoGP 2026.

  It's vlog time again and here I am trying to tie up  my August (yes I know it is half way through September already) before I start shooting my trip to Phitsanulok for the boat races. If you follow my channel you may have noticed I like wine. Fortunately in Chiang Mai theres a smashing little place called MOMENT & WINE on the Tha Pae road where I can enjoy a glass or more. This is one such drop in occasions and I got to taste a potential now addition to the wine list. For info I am not affiliated or paid by Moment & Wine (or any of the places I review) and by the way the wine I was invited to taste the vines had been grown on volcanic slopes

 Another month slips away and even in rainy season there are opportunities to get out and about. A month to enjoy walks, scenery, life, food and drink. And oh, in case my praise for the places I visit makes you think they pay me to sing loudly about them... I wish😁

 Fingers crossed for a rain free walk I set out to try and decide which, if any between the Narawat  and Iron bridges would make a good sunset timelapse. I opted for the Iron bridge it being as my friend Charlie Farley says, quite possible the most photographed in Chiang Mai and where I though the least obstructed view would be. At this time of year the setting angle is not at its best and there was not much tone in the sky as the sun slid from view. All good practice though.
