Photographer’s Note

My first morning in Nyaung Shwe.
I woke up early and first i was disappointed with all the fog.I walked for a while and not far from my guesthouse"four sisters" I saw the first sunrays shining through the fog and these clouds.
The owners of the guesthouse are indeed 4 sisters and Ludwig (Lulu) from Nürnberg.He visited Burma 16 years ago for the first time,spent the oldest sister one year at the highschool,came back and back and back,spent some more money for the highschool and two years later he was married with Saingee,the youngest one.They built their guesthouse a very nice and friendly place.They are in Myanmar from November to April and the rest of the year they live in Germany.
They offer a rich breakfast and if you want diner too.
No big choice,only one maindish with many ,many delicious sidedishes,local specialities.
No fixed price,you pay what you want!
After diner it was very interesting to listen to Lulu`s and Saingee`s stories about local live and the problems people have there.
Thank you Saingee and Ludwig for wonderful 5 days and your warm hospitality.
Ludwig is now 70 years old and we had a nice halfdaytrip to some caves where some monks live,not mentioned in the guidebooks.
Aldo asked why it`s so dark,shooting against the sun.
The camerasetting was:light: -0.3
