I took this shot many years ago one foggy morning I took this shot many years ago one foggy morning on the Dieng Plateau in Central Java. Back then there were only two rather simple hotels. Early mornings were always wonderfully misty and mysterious but the sun would shine before lunch. In the afternoons it rained heavily.

A hefty strand of spider silk stretched across the A hefty strand of spider silk stretched across the footpath slammed into my face as I set off on my walk this morning. A reminder that Summer is just around the corner and that soon the trees in my neck of the woods will be festooned with nephila pelipes or golden orb weavers. Their name comes from the yellow sheen on the webs of mature spiders.
.
They are quite majestic beasts but for those unfamiliar, they are the stuff of nightmares. Fully grown the body is about the size of my thumb with a leg span a little wider than my outstretched hand. The webs are commonly about a metre across, though I have seen some that were easily 1.5 metres, and are spun from some of the strongest silk known. Though they do look very pretty when caught in the sunlight. Multiple spinnerets at the blunt end of the spider mean they are quite capable of making spider rope and they are also able adjust the composition of the silk according to their environment. 
.
These huge spiders are always female. The males are a rusty brown color and little bigger than a fingernail. They hang about on the edges of the web waiting, presumably until she has a meal large enough to hold her attention so that he can dart in, do the business and retreat without becoming a light snack himself. I’ve read that a bite can be quite painful but the venom itself is not considered dangerous. I have no plans to put it to the test.

Macaques have lived in Lop Buri since the late sev Macaques have lived in Lop Buri since the late seventeenth century, They first moved into the old Khmer Phra Karn Shrine probably after their original habitat was cleared for crops. People believed them to be disciples of the Hindu god Kala and so left them in peace.
.
Over the years their numbers have swelled and there are now three distinct groups. A second group colonised the temple ruins of Phra Prang Sam Yot and a third, more dystopian group occupies an old disused market place. Squabbles have always been common but they reached new heights early in the pandemic when tourists dried up and along with them the supply of cola, candies and potato chips.
.
The locals have always put out spare fruit and vegetables for them so it is unlikely any of them went hungry. Indeed the diet has probably improved their health no end.

One of Java's best known attractions, Mt Bromo, is nearby but most people just come to see the sunrise over the crater and leave again before breakfast. But it is a great place to chill out in the cool mountain air for a few days.

Ta Prohm, Angkor, Cambodia . While it is not so co Ta Prohm, Angkor, Cambodia
.
While it is not so comfortable Ta Prohm is at its atmospheric best during the rainy season. When the greens of the lichens and the browns of the banyan trees contrast with the wet grey stone walls.
.
Ta Prohm was founded in 1186 by King Jayavarman VII though construction would have continued well into the 13th century. It was abandoned in the 15th century and suffered centuries of neglect. When conservation efforts began it was decided that the temple, which blends quite beautifully with the surrounding jungle,  would be left largely as it was found. Much work has been done however to prevent the complex deteriorating further and to stabilise it so that it doesn't collapse on visitors.
.
Angkor and all its temples are a Unesco Word Heritage site. Parts of the Tomb Raider movie were filmed at Ta Prohm.

It’s amazing what a lick of paint can do. I last It’s amazing what a lick of paint can do. I last visited the charming little Luen Wo Market a little over two years ago. Then the gates were closed and fastened with rusty chains. The building was in a very sorry state indeed. A gentleman wearing a yellow hard hat did assure me that it was about to be renovated so today I went back to take a look. 
.
Inaugurated in 1951, the market thrived for 50 years, finally closing in 2002 when the stalls were moved to a new location.
.
The building looks much happier now. Its structural integrity has been preserved and veggies, organic this time, are for sale along one side while the stalls on the other now have chairs and tables for guests of the Wake Up Bistro - who are, in fact, open all day.

The basalt columns at High Island in Sai Kung Coun The basalt columns at High Island in Sai Kung Country Park were formed about 140 million years ago when a vast pool of magma that lay beneath the eastern New Territories, most of Kowloon and all of Hong Kong island erupted. The land plunged downwards carving out a landscape which, after years of weathering and being clothed in a rich green forest, became one of Hong Kong’s best-loved hiking destinations.
.
The volcano was one of only about fifty known super-volcanoes in the world and represents Hong Kong’s contribution to the Unesco Global Geopark.

Shap Long is a small village on the Chi Ma Wan Pen Shap Long is a small village on the Chi Ma Wan Peninsula in southern Lantau. There is not much there, a few houses, one road and no shops. The only public service is an infrequent ferry which calls at a pier on the other side of a short but gruelling hill. This little lagoon forms at high tide. When the tide is out it is occupied by crabs combing the silt and sand for tasty morsels.

A central lane leads from the gatehouse to a communal shrine on the rear wall. The houses on either side are tightly packed into narrow alleys but along the inner walls at the back and sides, there is still room for trees, garden areas and small vegetable plots. The moat, which once surrounded the village, has since been filled in to create space for villagers to park their cars.

Found this impressive butterfly waiting when I got Found this impressive butterfly waiting when I got home the other evening. It's a spangled swallowtail (papilio protenor) resting on the bougainvillea. The wing span is about twenty centimetres. They are actually quite common, I've just never seen one stay still long enough to take a picture of it before. I'm afraid I lack the patience of dedicated lepidoptera shooters.

Last night a plague of flying ants also took to the sky but despite having the mosquito screens already shut a few still managed to teleport themselves in. Most got no further than the balcony where they spent the night milling around, climbing on the plants and wondering what to do next.

It was the bulbuls that decided their fate. These birds are common around here but they usually keep their distance. With a banquet of flying ants on the menu though, several came over for breakfast.

Silk production in Kao Dach, near Phnom Penh, Camb Silk production in Kao Dach, near Phnom Penh, Cambodia.
.
After the silkworms have gorged themselves on mulberry leaves they spin a fine cocoon around themselves. This is glued together with a natural gum called sericin. Boiling the cocoon dissolves the sericin allowing the silk thread to be unwound in a single strand that can be as much as 100 metres long.
.
The fine strands are then washed to remove any remaining gum, bleached and dyed before being spun ready for weaving.
