Hua Hin photo competitions

Monday, July 2nd, 2007

Over on the HHAD forum they have launched a couple of photo competitions, one for Hua Hin related images and one for general photographs. Voting is open to all though you must be registered on the forum and it is likely there will be more competitions held if there is enough demand so all the camera buffs out there get snapping:

Wildlife

Being in a tropical climate Hua Hin has no shortage of interesting wildlife and beasties. Take a look around you to see what is hiding here and there, both in town and in the many parks and rural areas around Hua Hin. This little fellow was so busy sunning himself he didn’t notice me taking the shot!
