Market Scenes, Siem Reap Cambodia
I’ve been checking out local markets to see which will be the best for our 2011 Angkor Photo Workshops. Lighting is a challenge a usual, with dim conditions and difficult white balance control (unless of course you shoot RAW and convert later), but the subject matter is plentiful and the photo opportunities are amazing.

Although the heat sometimes makes it very uncomfortable to work here, the Cambodian people are just so genuinely wonderful, that you kind of forget about the heat. There’s a joy and radiance in the faces and the personalities here, often captured one’s photos.
