Expat on a Vespa; International Phnom Penh — ភ្នំពេញ ជា ទី ក្រុង អន្ដរជាតិ

An expat in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. I think she’s riding a Vespa Bella scooter. Phnom Penh is such an international city. Please share my images—they are meant to be seen! Use them for your non-profit, on your blog, for fun and the like, but you must link to www.ethancrowley.com and give credit to Ethan Crowley. […]

The ancient Angkorian King's promenade

The King’s Promenade at Angkor

An ancient, raised promenade for the Angkorian king, connecting the palace area to the king’s personal temple. This photo belies the actual size of the temple…. it’s huge! And tall. My wife and I snuck up at sunset, after having sorta gotten permission from the guard. It was quiet, deserted and breathtaking from the top, […]

Jammin in the Hammock at Beng Melea

Jammin’ in our ENO Hammock at Bung Melea – ដេច អង្រឹង នៅ ប្រាសាទ បឹង មាលា។

I submitted this image to ENO Hammocks again for their monthly photo conest. ENO makes the strongest, lightest, post portable hammocks in the world. I’m absolutely in love with mine! Here’s last month’s submission, which failed to win anything…. So we shot this at the ancient Cambodian temple ruin of Beng Melea. It’s out in […]

Mystery—អង្គរវត្តមុនប្រះអាទិត្យរះ

Day and night meet….fleeting, mysterious, undisturbed…..as dawn breaks at Angkor. Part of the breathtaking morning experience watching the sunrise at Angkor Wat, as the stars slipped away one by one as sun slowly unveiled the temple, as it had every morning for a thousand years

Dugout Canoe being paddled across the moat at Angkor.

A dugout canoe ride across Angkor Wat’s Moat! ជិះទូកនៅាង្គរវត្ត។

This last trip to Angkor, I noticed this boat in the moat that surrounds the ancient temple. Some workers were using it to repair the causeway. I struck up a conversation with them, and was able to talk my way into getting a free boat ride in the moat! A once-in-a-lifetime experience. It was surreal, […]

Red dirt road in Ratanakiri Province, Northeast Cambodia

Road To Nowhere – ផ្លូវ នៅ រតនកីរី

Another vintage post from 2009 This is a pretty typical scene from Ratanakiri, Cambodia. There are a lot of hills, a lot of jungle, and plenty of red clay. I shot this Sunday afternoon. I saw some really cool cloud banks building up, and set out on my dirt bike to find a couple of […]

Roots on the Ancient Temple of Ta Prom

Of Roots and Sandstone….. ឬសដើមឈើនៅប្រាសាទតាព្រហ្ម

Sounds almost like a band name. Probably a lame, wannabe indie band. Anyway, Ta Prom never seems to get old (no pun intended). On this last trip, we got up before 5 to drink in the predawn light and experience the sunrise, as it individually transformed each stone it touched. There was a nest of […]

Old Bonsai-style tree at Angkor Wat

The Jungle-Enshrouded Temple

I thought this tree’s shape was very interesting, as I peered through it at Angkor Wat. I love old, spreading trees. I nearly had to fight off a couple dozen monkeys, but I guess the fact that I didn’t have food to offer them pushed them away into the trees.

Ethnic Minority Villager's House

My Inaugural Post

Time will tell if this photo blog will prove abiding. I notice how the Web seems to stink with the rotting carcasses of countless dead blogs, like so many Bartlebys, bygone testaments to authors’ imperfect resolve. Hopefully this one will prove more enduring. My goal is to upload a photo a day, with a brief […]
