Glen is a great photographer and friend who has been traveling the world for years. With the combination of his eye, experience and the time he spends at his locations, he can easily hold his own. My post was meant to be a playful way to attract my readers to the news that Glen was back on the road in the hope that they would all follow his journeys. I could have taken another, and perhaps better approach to the post, but there was no attempt at belittle Glen’s talent.

I had hoped that he would flood the comment box with example after example of his great photography. He’s also a talented writer. His blog is a wonderful way to be a vicarious traveler as well.

Great rainy day shot!

Well, today there’s no rain in Siem Reap. Guess I’ll have to use my double fog filter to get anywhere close to what you captured. So now I’m off to the tourist infested waters of Angkor. When I first visited in 1994 there were hardly any hotels here. Now it’s a veritable five-star bowling alley, chock-a-block, wall-to-walll, with accommodation just about all the way up to Ta Prohm temple. Back in ’94 I went solo–well, except for a soldier armed with a machine gun as a guide. There were still a few Khmer Rouge lurking around and lots of land mines underfoot.

So yesterday I braved the knee-deep waters of Siem Reap and snagged a couple of nice fine art photos in the drizzle. First one up already:

Now back to the day job . . .
