Sunset over the Mekong river. Just shot this about 10 minutes ago, off of my hotel balcony in Kratie. Back in 2006 when I was traveling through Kracheh, I actually took a photo from this exact spot (same river, same hotel, same balcony), and posted it to Flickr. It was one of my earliest photos, […]
