The easiest way to get across the river. 50 cents gets you and your motorcycle across. Just hope that no-one freaks out and causes the boat to capsize… that happens too. Ratanakiri, Cambodia. Please feel free to share my images—they are meant to be seen! Use them for your non-profit, on your blog, for fun […]
I thought she looked aged and wise and noble, as she deftly wove palm fronds together, a mat taking shape before my eyes. I watched for a while, trying to figure out how she was doing it, imagining if I could accomplish the same thing. I never did figure the pattern out—it was pretty complex. […]
I love the April sky in Cambodia; it’s always full of gorgeous puffy white clouds. Beautiful. Every Highlander has two houses, one in the village and one at the farm. The farm one is usually a little more than a lean-to, like this one above. During busy planting or harvesting times everyone lives out at […]

Whew, it’s been a week since the last upload! I have the dual problems of spotty Cambodia internet (out for 4 days) and a job that’s kicked into high gear over the last week. I haven’t even had time to process photos from my time in Laos a couple weeks ago. Soon, hopefully. Anyway, here’s […]
Crossing the Sesan River, early in the morning, in Northeast Cambodia.
