moto taxi driver on monivong ave, phnom penh

Streets of Phnom Penh

Moto-Taxi driver in Phnom Penh. His old green Honda Super Cub is probably from the Seventies. For $0.80, one can get nearly anywhere in Phnom Penh on the back of one of these, and can also be reminded of how good it is to be alive when you nearly get run over by a Lexus. […]

About: An Asian elephant, ridden by a Tampuan man

Horton hits a hundred — ដំរី អាយុុ មួយ រយ ឆ្នាំ

I guess when you need a smoke, you light up, even if you’re on an elephant. The elephant sat and eyed us, impassively, trunking an occasional handful of sugar cane into his mouth while I talked to his human. Elephants seem so wise and sage and discerning. I asked the Tampuan driver how old he […]

An old widow begging for food and money in Kampong Cham Province, Cambodia

Blessing & Begging

This kind old yeay (grandma) smiled at Emily and me when we gave her a few thousand riels, and said “May you have many, many grandchildren.” I guess time will tell if she’s right…… So I have a short guest post on the travel blog Bucket List Publications; it’s a blog aimed at helping people […]

Fishing for dinner in Bung Kan Seng lake

One Last Cast- Vintage Photo, circa 2006

This was probably one of the first decent photos I ever took. Believe it or not, I shot it with a old, 2003 model Canon point-and-shoot IXY DIgital. (remember the days before DSLRs were a dime-a-dozen? Seems like the dark ages now). I shot it in Ratanakiri in 2006. I was down by the lake […]

Basket Seller in Lompat, Cambodia on a Honda super cub

The Basket Man

Itinerant basket sellers; they ride all over Cambodia, from village to village, selling their wares. Their packing ability shows extraordinary resource and creativity—A westerner could never imagine getting even a sixteenth of that loaded…. Imagine spending all day on that moto seat…. serious pain!
