This is Koh Samui, an island in southern Thailand, where I’ve been holed up in a ridiculously lavish resort the past 5 days. Don’t hate. I never do stuff like this.
Anyway, I left my SLR at home, which I regretted only once – when I was at the island’s highest peak and trying to capture the depth of Samui’s vast coconut orchards leading to a pristine beach. You won’t see that image here, because admittedly there are limitations to the iPhone4 camera – or perhaps I’m just not skilled enough. But I think I did alright. Leave a comment if you agree or disagree or just want to say hi. All pics taken with iPhone4 camera and edited in Filterstorm, Picfx and Snapseed, and sometimes all three.

Yes, I carried my iPhone4 into the pool. Yes, I know that’s stupid.
This isn’t as ancient as it might look. These statues are only about 60 years old. Your dad totally could have built them.
I’m not sure if this one worked. Can you tell there’s a giant golden Buddha sitting on a hill in this reflection? Yeah, didn’t think so.
For me, the most magical moment. I was face to face, close enough to touch her massive trunk and look into her eyes. This sweet creature’s name is “Big Momma” and she nearly swiped my iPhone from my hands.
Fabulous. You are really brave for taking your iPhone in to the pool.
I would think twice. Then again, no I wouldn’t.
Good day my friend.
Those are so awesome!!! Thanks for sharing….wow….Alaska isn’t the only place on earth which fills the heart with awe!
Tyson, these are incredible. Ko Samui is beautiful, no?
