  1. Getting b-roll from the locals

    Having a talented, young photography assistant is always great!

    Giving my backup mobile camera to the ever brilliantly and creative ms N* was a way of getting fresh looks at old sites.

    The Preah Vihear complex is one of Cambodia’s most precious global cultural heritage sites, and getting around it takes time and visits.

    Local knowledge and help is vital to get the most out of it.

  2. An intricate entrance gate to history

    North in Cambodia lays the levelled mountain temple complex of Preah Vihear. The details in the ornamentation on this temple is stunning.

    Preah Vihear is dedicated to the god Shiva.
    The art tells about the details in the religious practice over the 250 years the Angkor Empire built this temple complex over 1000 year ago.

    Preah Vihear is the 2nd Cambodian World Cultural Heritage site after Angkor Wat.
