Dream Trip 2009

Great Travel Moment

August 1996, when Cambodia was still the wild west, only about 300 airline seats a day made it to Siem Reap for the great temples. We were prowling about in front of the great main temple, with nobody else in sight (how could that happen any more?) when this shot just grabbed my camera. It's the only photo I've ever taken that got the woman who developed it at the drug store to say it was the best photo she'd ever seen.
