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

Myanmar Photo Tour: Yangon to Mandalay
Our second stop on the Myanmar tour is Mandalay, where we spend a total of 4 nights.

A few years back, during an interview I was asked why I like Cambodia so much. My response was something like this… “When traveling to Cambodia one quickly realizes that material possessions have no correlation to one’s happiness. If wealth were measured by the smiles on people’s faces, rather than by dollars and cents, Cambodia […]
Southeast Asia Photo Tour: Pak Beng to Luang Prabang, Laos
After our 2 day boat trip from the Thailand border, with a mid-way overnight stop in Pak Beng, we’ve arrived in the UNESCO World Heritage town of Luang Prabang. Our second day on the river was an 8 hour private boat journey, which provided us with plenty of relaxation, time to edit our images and […]
Photo Tour: Northern Thailand, Burma Border & Down The Mekong
We’ve just arrived in the sleepy little village of Pak Beng, Laos, mid-way between Chaing Khong Thailand and Luang Prabang.
