Tonight is Circus Night, but before going to the circus, we were out for dinner at a Cambodian restaurant. I ordered a Cambodian Delicacy made with fermented fish, minced pork, lemon grass, coconut milk and of course many other things. It was wonderful, much like a curry but with the fish subtly demanding attention. It came with rice and an array of labour intensive cold vegetables. Each bit of vegetable was manipulated to enhance the presentation. Note the manipulation of the long beans and the green onions.
Then came the circus. About eight young men and one lady performed remarkable acrobatic stunts one after another. The tempo and volume of the music ware high and the action was incredibly high energy. It was wonderful.
The lighting was low and the action was so fast that few of the still images turned out well. Here is one to give you an idea.
Videos turned out better on my camera, but they will obviously take longer to download.
