Incredibly beautiful Cambodian temples wrapped in Banyan roots : Angkor, Cambodia

Angkor Complex 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

The Killing Fields - Cambodia

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: First days, our journey into Cambodia. Beautiful. Awesome. Amazing.

Street scene Phnom Penh Cambodia

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

Street Scene in Hanoi, Northern Vietnam

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 [...]

The distinctive yellow stained walls of Hội An – Vietnam photos

Hoi An - Vietnam stock photography

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.

Rights managed photography pricing examples

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?

RF vs RM Licensing explained

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 [...]

The incredibly beautiful blossom season in Vietnam.

Blossom season in Hanoi, Vietnam Stock Photography

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

Rugs on a moped - Hanoi, Vietnam Stock Photography

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 [...]

Kid with gun, burning money & security guards in Hanoi, Vietnam

Kid with a gun in Hanoi - Vietnam Stock Photography

Couldn’t resist grabbing a photograph as I wandered past this little guy shooting the tourists with a gun almost as big as him. It was great fun getting lost on all the tiny side streets in Hanoi, every street selling something different, from coffins to caged birds.

Another quick photograph whilst wandering the streets of Hanoi. [...]

The Army Museum in Hanoi – Vietnam

Army Museum - Hanoi, Vietnam

The Army museum in Hanoi is an odd place, it’s hard to describe. The imposing American fighter jet laden with bombs dominating the courtyard outside, flanked by a bullet holed US tank and beside sit massive stacks of war debris such as parts of shot down planes, ammunition, shells, you name it – it’s all [...]

Boiling hot black sand volcanic beaches & bat caves in Bali

Black Volcanic Beaches in Bali

There is just something strange about seeing jet black beaches, everything in my head just screams that they should be coral white.. not black. What I totally didn’t think about as I walked barefoot on the sand was how hot it would be compared to white sand beaches in the mid day sun. Basic physics [...]

Roasting coffee beans from the poop of the Asian Palm Civet. Tasty

Roasting Kopi Luwak droppings for coffee

We visited a local coffee plantation just north of Ubud in Bali, Indonesia. It was a special area for growing coffee in Bali as they collect the droppings of the Asian Palm Civet (Paradoxus hermaphroditus) which has a taste for the ripe coffee cherries on the plants. It then poops them out beneath the the [...]

Incredible skull bone carving in Bali – Indonesia

Bone carving in Bali - Indonesia

I just love this intricate skull bone carving, found on a street in Ubud, Bali. The level of detail was amazing, I hadn’t seen anything quite like that before. I think the detail, contrast and pattern in this photograph just asked to be black and white.

If you would like to view these images larger, or [...]

The stunning dragon bridge, like something out of the movies. Ubud, Bali

The dragon bridge - Ubud, Bali, Indonesia

This beautiful bridge was like something out of the movies, high up and spanning a ravine of fast flowing water, covered in moss as if something connecting worlds. With long vines hanging down and around it, it just looked stunning. Ubud, Bali – Indonesia.
If you would like to view these images larger, or purchase [...]
