The 2012 Philippines photo tour is off and running. We spent our first two days in Manila and I didn’t have a moment to blog, so I’ll be posting images a few days behind. We always start our Philippines photo tour in Manila’s historic heart; the walled city of Intramuros, and who better to guide […]

Photo Workshop: Purna Kumbh Mela, January, 2013, Allahabad India
Twelve years ago, 60 million pilgrims (yes, that’s right 60 million), assembled in Allahabad, North India for a month long festival. It was the largest gathering of human beings, ever. The crowd was so immense that it was visible from space. On January 21st, the most auspicious bathing day, I was there, along with 30 […]
Spaces Available On My Philippines Photo Tour: June 16-30
“I flew to the Philippines, but I had no idea what to expect . . . I was assuming it would be another opportunity to improve my photography skills. Little did I know . . . the countryside with the endless green rice terraces, the magnificent mountains, the islands with their amazing white sandy beaches […]
Vietnam Photo Tour: Cat Ba and Bac Ha
Holy cow, it’s been an amazing week or so since my last post! This blog post entitled Cat Ba & BaC Ha has been lingering in my “drafts” folder, for almost 10 days but I have not had even a moment to try and finish it up. Mind you, I’m not complaining because I would […]
Vietnam Photo Tour: Hoi An to Hanoi
Sorry, folks, I know that I’ve been remiss about getting a blog post up, but frankly we’re shooting so much and having so much fun that I barely have time to download the days images, do a quick edit to get rid of the junk in time get some sleep before we begin again the […]
Vietnam Photo Tour: South Into The Mekong Delta
We left Saigon (Ho Chi Minh City) in our private boat (seen below) for a 6 hour trip down to Can Tho, the busiest port in the Mekong Delta. The centerpiece of our trip south is to photograph the amazing and colorful floating markets (seen above). But there’s more to Can Tho than just the […]
Vietnam Photo Tour Day One: Ho Chi Minh City
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 […]
