"The sharp knife of a short life

I've had just enough time..."


- "If I Die Young" The Band Perry


I see Beauty in many things. And like the ghosts that only speak to you if you notice them, they tell me wondrous tales. With my camera and my thoughts, I captured these as faithfully as I can to share with you. And by doing so, they gave me the reasons. And though the thousand reasons may not all be sweet and some indeed bitter; they are still reasons to live. Come to think about it, that is Life, isn't it?

The Nai Dee Sculptured Huts Part III – Vic Hua Hin & "The Little Touches"



I've had just enough time...   to appreciate little touches

The Elephant God the office guards


While the big picture thrills and astounds
It is the little touch that counts
The one that said with muted voice “we care”
The one that speaks silently from the heart
A flower on the bed, a smile in the morning
Clasped hands and a little bow
Welcome to our world, may our hearts touch
Softly, gently, with harmony and love


The Teddy Bear in front of the hut


“The Little Touches” 
The Elephant God the office guards 
The Teddy Bear in front of the hut 
A probing question that innocently asks 
Answered by little child asleep on the task 
A dance around the clock 
The imp that holds up the block 
A pink umbrella among the green 
A shadow behind the screen 
The spirits of the tree 
And the spirits roaming free 
The lotus under the sun 
Goes to bed when the day is done


 A probing question that innocently asks


Answered by little child asleep on the task


A dance around the clock


The imp that holds up the block


A pink umbrella among the green 


 A shadow behind the screen


The spirits tied to the tree


And the spirits roaming free


The lotus under the sun


Goes to bed when the day is done

    It is relatively easy to wow visitors with a bold front but inside the lovely facade, it is hollow within. So it is the "little touches" that tells more about the nature or spirit of a place. It is the same with people. Behind that smile, is the person really smiling? So I like to look for "little touches" to know whether the one who built the place meant what they are trying to show us. And in Vic Hua Hin, I found little touches everywhere. And they are a delight to discover. Here I took down just a dozen of many little touches that I found there.

    I love your beautiful images and especially that pink Umbrella!
    have a wonderful evening.

    Thanks! Sethph88. You're really fast, commenting even before I do! :)
    There are all a dozen of the "little touches" images that I took. I only post 2 in flcikr as it is not so conducive for too many loadings at one time. You'll have to go to my blog if you want to see all 12. Above is an example of one of the delightful little touches - dancing round the clock. It is such a joyful and delightful image to put next to an ordinary clock. Enjoy!
