Today’s opening shot is an image of Ho Chi Minh City’s famous opera house, one of Saigon’s most recognizable structures. I have photographed the Opera House on numerous occasions but I cannot take credit for finding this unique perspective. In fact it was tour guest Bob Shaw who discovered the reflection of the opera house […]

Myanmar Photo Tour: Final Post. Stay Tuned For Vietnam
Someone once said “The sooner you fall behind, the more time you’ll have to catch up”. Since falling behind with my Myanmar blog posts, I’ve had ample time to catch up, but few opportunities to get on line! So, with a decent internet connection today, and the Vietnam photo tour coming quickly, I thought I […]
Off The Beaten Track Cambodia
For the last 6 days I’ve been on the road in the remote eastern provinces of Cambodia, exploring new locations for a photo tour which I plan to offer in the near future. I’m a huge fan of Cambodia because it has so much more to offer than just the well trodden temples of Angkor […]
Myanmar Photo Tour: Motion, Reflection, Catch-Lights & Texture
Late afternoon Inle Lake, single cylinder Chinese motor, Japanese Nikon D3S, 17-35 F2.8 lens, a 15th of a second, at 14 knots Inle lake is the final stop on the Amazing Myanmar tour, and I subscribe to the idea of “keeping the best for last”. Myanmar’s Inle lake is our crowning touch on an amazing […]
Myanmar Photo Tour: Bagan’s Goat Herders, Lacquer Factory & Mt. Popa
Our photo tour spends several night in Bagan, giving us the opportunity to visit several locations for sunrise and sunset photos. On our second sunset visit, the group decided to forgo the usual “sunset from atop the temple” and focus rather, on the sheep and cow herders. Below you’ll find the previous night’s shot from […]
Myanmar Photo Tour: Mandalay to Bagan and Beyond
It’s been days since I have had an internet connection which is fast enough for me to be able to blog, but I guess I shouldn’t be complaining, because at least I can blog. Last year, my blog posts were blocked, but now things are “opening up” here in Myanmar, so I should be happy. […]
Myanmar Photo Tour: Day Trips Around Mandalay
Morning at Inle Lake, I just woke up. I’ve been trying to get a blog post up for a few days now, but the internet has been impossible. I can’t believe it…for some reason, the internet is actually working! I’m posting five images now, and will try to upload more later. on the road to […]
Myanmar Photo Tour: Yangon to Mandalay
Our second stop on the Myanmar tour is Mandalay, where we spend a total of 4 nights. There’s plenty to explore in and around Mandalay including markets, pagodas, Ubien’s bridge and so much more, it would be easy to spend an entire week here! Once again, I’ll have to apologize for not writing much, it’s […]
Amazing Myanmar Photo Tour
The 2012 Amazing Myanmar Photo Tour is off to a great start. We spent our first day in Yangon and Bago. As I write this blog post, we’re in Mandalay, where we have arrived earlier today. The internet here in Myanmar has improved since last September and access to blogging is possible, although the connection […]
Seva Cambodia: Restoring Sight To The Blind
This week I’m in northwestern Cambodia, shooting a job for the Seva. The first time I shot for Seva, was back in 2004. Now almost a decade later I’m delighted to see that their programs have expanded and are flourishing here. I am equally happy to blog about Seva, so that you can understand a […]
