Superb pics.. Think I like the look of the Laos version more..
 
Thanks for the kind words!
I was able to shoot those photos with the camera in a dry bag, wandering around the moat saw many expensive cameras in special made dry bags and some just wrapped in plastic bags!

It is fun learning the ropes on this new gear, plenty different from the Canon format!
First off road expedition for the camera (and me) tomorrow, got the inside scoop on some trails and roads a days ride away, to the West of Vientiane.
