2012 Workshop Schedule

I’ve received several e-mails asking about next year’s workshop schedule.

I thought I would also highlight the current list of workshops I have running [...]


Angkor Photo Workshop and the Fruits of our Labour

Angkor Photo Workshop and the Fruits of our Labour

“Hannibal” Smith  in the 1980′s TV series, “The A-Team” used to say “I love it when a plan comes together”.  All I need is a cigar in the side of my mouth and I could be Hannibal Smith today because the Angkor Photo Workshop did just that, it came together – perfectly. Sunday was the [...]


When is a demon not a demon?

When is a demon not a demon?

  Apsara dancers are the traditional dancers of Cambodia. They are the “celestial dancers” that adorn the walls and hallways of Angkor Wat and the other temples of Siem Reap.  Apsara dancers often dance the Cambodian version or telling of the Ramayana, a Hindu story of Rama, whose wife Sita is taken captive by the [...]


Angkor Photo Workshop

Angkor Photo Workshop

I am currently in one of the most amazing places on the planet, Seim Reap, Cambodia, the home of Angkor Wat. I am staying at the wonderful FCC hotel – classic French colonial mansion restored to make a comfortable, classic and luxurious place to stay. But, as with so many of the places I travel [...]


Portraits of Baktipur, Nepal

Portraits of Baktipur, Nepal

Click on any photo to view full size. Yesterday, we went to Baktipur. Nepal in it’s wisdom has attempted to keep it much like its past. Any new building are to be built in the same fashion as the ancient ones. They charge a pricey admittance for tourist, thus keeping the hippies at bay. I [...]


Packing List

Packing List

  It is been a long time since I have published a packing list. For that matter, it’s been a long time since I’ve even talked to you about what I take on a trip. So as I begin packing for my Tibet to Kathmandu Overland Workshop, I thought it would be good to share [...]

Here is more work by participants from the Ladakh Lumen Dei workshop. Today’s works is by Martin & Alik Sojka. The Martins are from Slovakia, and are very talented photographers.

Just checking in. We have had a great time with a very diverse team and some very talented photographers. Just got back from Lamayuru today and heading out tomorrow morning to the mountain lake of Tso Moriri. The net has been almost impossible. So it is all I can do to even post this small [...]


Egypt: Aswan Nubian Village

Egypt: Aswan Nubian Village

We travel in 52c (125º) heat, across the Nile and reached an isolated Nubian village visited by few foreigners. It was like nothing I have ever seen. The walls of the home where bright blue, deep red and mustered yellow. The people, the most friendly we have met in Egypt and the light was perfect; [...]
