Accidentally... on purpose

I knew these photos weren't quite right when I took them. I couldn't get the right focus, or light, or speed. But I reckon they capture the environment better that way.
Thanks Shutter Sisters for another great excuse to show photos that otherwise wouldn't see the light of day.

The lighting was all wrong to capture this Lao girl as she stood alone on an empty road. But I like her shining hair.

The grubbiness of the bus window in Vietnam made it very hard to take in-focus photos. But hey, that's how it was.

Odd angles of a Prague street

Ever tried to photograph a whirling dervish?

The speed and intensity of the Samoan Siva Tau and firedancing


Drumming so fast, all I could capture was the intense movement and a lovely smile.
