Towards the end of the year the NY Times sent me to a couple gorgeous places for their year end Places To Go in 2012. I was sent to Ha Long Bay, Vietnam and to Koh Rong Island, Cambodia. Koh Rong Island is undeveloped and simply a gorgeous isolated island retreat that I can't wait to return to on my own vacation. Contrary to what people might believe(queue the violin), travel stories aren't anything like vacation. I work all day and evening stressing out about getting thoughtful images and dealing with walking up to stranger after stranger on the beach asking if I can photograph them sunbathing or swimming without trying to look like a crazy person.
Ha Long Bay is a beautiful back drop for images,but gray skies clouded us for both days until of course we pulled up on the docks to conclude our trip. I even had a few images from some work I did in Myanmar.
Here are the links to the slideshows along with some of my favorites, thanks for looking.
