Blog: The Geography of Memory

A recapitulation of my work and wandering ways with thanks to those that have influenced and encouraged me to keep writing and making images.

Note: The blog’s format is such that you often have to click “read more” to see the image, especially at the bottom of a page.

Away from Home... Perhaps Without a Home

The town of Siem Reap, Cambodia… most known for Angkor Wat . I was there for a conference but had time to visit the temple. On my last day I went to a part that most people don’t go to… buildings still not renewed, the road usually not taken. I was the only person there until I saw these boys, brother I assume. They followed me for awhile as I was taking pictures. In hand speak I asked if I could point my camera to them. They looked at me without moving.
