Rude Awakening Photo: My Gobi dessert tour driver's sleeping accommodation is the emptied back of our versatile Jaman Yos, a Soviet era tank of a van. I suppose his startled reaction is normal for anyone awoken by a 70-200mm lens pointing at his face. Luckily he's one of the kindest Mongolians I've met and he didn't want to tear my heart out for the rude awakening.

Preserved Paintings Photo: Frescoes that are believed to date back to the 5th century. Even after over 1500 years, they've retained their detail and color (well they also received a little help from an Italian restorer).
