Incredibly beautiful Cambodian temples wrapped in Banyan roots : Angkor, Cambodia
I can’t really describe the beauty of seeing the root systems and vines wrapping around the ancient temples at the Angkor Complex in Cambodia, I hope you can see from the photographs how incredible it was to be there, I wish I could be back there today, a magical place. Please click on the [...]

Photographs of the Killing fields & Choeung Ek – Unbelievable mass graves
It’s hard to put into words trying to explain that background to the unbelievable and tragic murder of over a quarter of all Cambodians between 1975 and 1979 under Khmer Rouge regime.
“Estimates of the total number of deaths resulting from Khmer Rouge policies, including disease and starvation, range from 1.7 to 2.5 million out of [...]
Photos: The beautiful golden light in Cambodia – A magical start to our temple hunting
On arrival to our B&B in Siem Reap we were told that every guest is welcome to a free massage…. I’m not the biggest lover of massages but decided I should probably oblige. The massage consisted entirely of a mildly rotund Cambodian lady jumping on my back and digging her heels in for a full [...]
Photos: First days, our journey into Cambodia. Beautiful. Awesome. Amazing.
Can you tell how excited I am to be finally writing about our journey into Cambodia? My wife (it still feels weird saying that – we got married in Sept ‘10!) travelled to Cambodia a few years ago and she has been obsessed with the country every since. We had it in the back of [...]
Vietnam Photos: Street scenes & the 1200 Miles from Hanoi to Saigon
Hello again, I’ve hardly posted at all in the last few months and I’m dreadfully sorry, I will aim to get back on track asap! Right, back to the wonderful Hanoi in Northern Vietnam. We loved Hanoi, even though it was pretty chilly compared to where we had just come from… so we spent the [...]
Visting the beautiful Ha Long Bay in Vietnam. A UNESCO disaster en route
Ha Long Bay, Northern Vietnam. I don’t know where to start with Ha Long Bay, I really don’t. We took a long and scary bus ride from Hanoi to Ha Long, which took about 4 hours. 4 hours of fear. The driving in Vietnam is just incredible, I’ve never felt closer to death than when [...]
Visiting the bullet scarred remains of Hue, Vietnam – The 1968 Tet offensive
Hello again, I’m sorry I haven’t written anything in the last month, things became rather hectic. Anyway, I am back on track now and have lots more photography to show you over the next few weeks. So, back to Vietnam visiting the interesting city and citadel of Hue on the East of Vietnam. (View on [...]
The distinctive yellow stained walls of Hội An – Vietnam photos
The day bus from Hội An was an interesting (read: white knuckle) experience, Vietnamese driving is a little scary to say the least, but fortunately we arrived in one piece. As mentioned in our other travel blog, it’s kind of like walking into a film set, somewhat fake but charming at the same time. Some [...]
Examples of Rights Managed (RM) photography pricing & costs, same image, different usage.
In my last article, Why do Royalty Free (RF) images look like a bargain and why do Rights Managed (RM) images seem much more expensive? What is the difference? I summarised that using RF images could compromise your brand identity if used incorrectly and that RM licensing provided the better, all-round favourable and better value [...]
Why do Royalty Free (RF) images look like a bargain, and why do Rights Managed (RM) images seem much more expensive? What is the difference?
For the designer, buying a load of cheap $1 RF images seems like a total bargain, unlimited use, now and in the future, for any project, brief, assignment that needs imagery. Could using RF be compromising your brand identity?
You’ve seen it everywhere, iStock, Shutterstock et al, all offering Royalty Free (RF) photographs at incredibly low [...]
True luxury at ‘The Paradise’ Koh Yao – A well deserved mention!
I don’t often mention our accommodations, but we had the opportunity to stay as guests at the wonderful ‘The Paradise Koh Yao‘ luxury boutique resort and spa in Thailand. It is located roughly 45 minutes private speedboat journey from Phuket, a winding scenic journey around the incredible towering limestone islands surrounding Koh Yao Noi [...]
New travel photography albums ready for your veiwing
I’ve been adding new photographs very sporadically to my archives over the last few months whilst away, so I thought I would take just a minute to show you some of my new travel photography galleries. The most recent gallery is the Cambodia album, followed by Vietnam, then Bali, then Qamea, then Vanuatu. I hope [...]
The incredibly beautiful blossom season in Vietnam.
We were fortunate enough to visit Hanoi, Vietnam in the middle of the peach blossom season. Almost every shop, hotel, building has a beautiful spray of colourful blossoms to ensure good luck for the New Year (Tet) festive season. The top photo of this post is one of my favourite photographs from Hanoi, I love [...]
Sculpting headstones for the not quite dead and purple dolphins in Vietnam
A few interesting street scenes for you today, taken whilst walking around the back streets of Hanoi, Vietnam – an amazing city to photograph, I really loved it here. First up, the rugs on a moped. An incredible weight of heavy rugs laden on top of this poor, tiny CC moped – I didn’t [...]
