Scenes from the Market


Akbar wanted to buy some mountain honey while we were in Shahrisabz.









Tamerlane's Aq Saray

Or what is left of it. What a beast.






En Route to Shahrisabz

Still Bukhara - Columns








Razzle Dazzle


Bukhara's monuments, and the city in general, may seem massive and sparse. But on the inside it sure does sparkle.


Tons more of that dilapidated ancientness. Which I love, so much.

Blackout

I'm a little bit behind on my blogposts, but there's so much to show that it can't be helped. Since I  can't say when I will next have internet, I'm posting a lot today. 

We had a blackout in Bukhara; therefore we hadn't much to do. No internet, not much light to read by.


We sat around and played with the camera.


We looked at the stars.




And played shadow games in the candlelight.
