| True Inside. Beautiful Outside. |
Some of the things that struck me the most, during our short visit to Cambodia, funnily enough all start with the letter C. (is that sesame street or play school I am channeling?! the parents out there will be able to tell me.) Anyway back to the letter C.
C is for colour.
The colours! Everything was so vibrant, the bright orange of the Monks clothes, the beautiful tropical flora the colorful houses and boats. It was so pretty.
C is for Children.
The children were beautiful. Actually they are are very lovely people, the Cambodia people, not just the children. It is amazing the happiness that they exude, given the tragic recent history.
C is for Crazy.
From the driving to the wiring to the live snakes around some children. Some times it was a bit, well, crazy!
C is for Contrast
Cambodia is such a contrast from the weather (sunshine one minute heavy rain the next, though to be fair, it IS the wet season I guess), to the very rich and the very poor... It was hard to see the circumstances that some people have to live in.
I could go on but I won't, here are some images. I still have not looked at all 2000 of them all yet! Why do I take so many?! Does anybody else have that problem?

Great blog. What a beautiful post! Wonderful photos and yes, so much color & contrast!
Wow, they're all beautiful but the picture of the monk (?) in particular blows me away. Gorgeous.
Sounds like Cambodia is a great place to visit. Your pictures have made me so excited for my trip to Vietnam next year!
I hope the time away helped you find your lost mojo. x
your pictures are so beautiful really makes me want to go back to cambodia! and I totally agree with the C letters you choose for the country, the contrast, the colors and the children are all just so beautiful :)
Hey!! I was just on my way over to visit when your name popped up!!
These are such great shots!! gorgeous!!
I can understand the contrast thing.. third world countries do have that ability to amaze and shock at the same time
Have a great weekend.. ciao xxx Julie
Wonderful photos. Love your idea of making them into a little book too :) I'm inspired.
We took the teen and the preschooler on a little backpacking adventure last summer which included Cambodia and it was a really valuable experience for all of us. Loved seeing the monks everywhere. Will you post picture of the book when you finish it? I'd love to see!
Wonderful!!!
You take such beautiful pictures and I feel the emotions through the camera. Well done!
Cambodia is intriguing and definitely a place I wish to explore one day. Hard to do with young childen, but something we have discussed for the future.
Thanks for sharing your C's..

Gorgeous photos! I have never thought of visiting Cambodia but after reading this post and seeing these pictures, I might have to see all this for myself. =)
Amazing photos!!! The colors in these photographs are incredible!
Hi Tam, Stunning images! It's marvelous that you can find a common denominator to catalogue them by. Otherwise, it can be very overwhelming to begin organizing so many images. I do try to take one "theme" or event at a time.
Have a great weekend. – g
