Ship Captain…. តាសក់ស្កូវ

I’m sure he’s not a ship’s captain, I just thought he looked like one. This is actually an older post from my Flickr page, but I like how the image turned out, and felt like posting it again… He reminded me of what a seafaring man, or a ships captain, would look like, with his […]

Amazing Sky Panorama

Tonight’s Sunset

Beautiful sky in Northeastern Cambodia tonight. Something in the air gave cast a saturated, titian hue. After almost two weeks solid of monsoons, with nary a glimpse of the sun, that strip of blue is a welcome sight. 12 image hdr panorama, handheld; stitched in photoshop. Please feel free to share my images—they are meant […]

Tribal Farm House in Cambodia

Farm House

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 […]

Carving a pineapple, Cambodia style

Pineapple that doesn’t hurt your mouth…. ម្នស់

Cambodia has amazing pineapple, somehow perfectly grown and formulated to not hurt your mouth. And it’s always so artfully cut… And most fruit grown in country is organic; most of it isn’t certified (yet), but I’m sure someday it will be (someone needs to start an organic certification NGO). Phnom Penh, Cambodia. Please feel free […]

casting a net from a dugout canoe in Ratanakiri

Video: Northeast Cambodia 2013 – វីដេអូ:​ បង ប្អូន ខ្មែរ លើ នៅ រតនគីរី​ ។

So I put together a demo reel the other day, made up of some work from the first half of this year. It’s nearly all just video shot in Ratanakiri and Northeast Cambodia for my current job. Nearly all the shots feature Brao people, an ethnic minority group who live along the Sesan River . […]

Brao man on the banks of the Sesan in Ratanakiri, Cambodia

On the banks of the Sesan River – អង្គុយ​ លេង​ នៅ​ ទន្លេ​ សេសាន

The gorgeous Sesan river in Ratanakiri, Northeast Cambodia. If the planned Lower Sesan 3 and 4 dams are approved by the government (and financed by a Chinese or Vietnamese company), all of this will be under water someday; the Brao people, who’ve lived here for thousands of years, will be see their ancestral lands disappear. […]

Tampuan girl with striking, light-colored eyes

Nearly Sharbat Gula

She had the most striking eyes; she’s one of the few Asians I’ve ever seen with this shade. I’ve seen other Tampuans with striking eyes, but normally for how intense and dark they are. She almost reminds me of Sharbat Gula, the green-eyed Afghan girl of National Geographic fame. Please feel free to share my […]

smoking homegrown pipe tobacco

តា​ ជក់ ខ្សៀ មួយ

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 […]

riding an elephant down a jungle path

Riding through the Jungle

Riding an elephant down a jungle road in Northeast Cambodia. It’s a pretty cool area. Off to one side is a crater lake, and on the other is the steep bank, rising up away from the lake, covered in jungle. It’s pretty exotic and there’s bamboo groves everywhere. Please feel free to share my images—they […]
