The internet connection is very slow, so one image from Nagaland, shot not far from the Burma/India border. More later.
I was in Berlin in a workshop with a cool guy from Denmark.
It was a great time, and Berlin’s a really interesting city. Here’s a sample of the street life:
And now, I’ll get busy with preparing for my next trip to Burma. I leave on January 7th, on my own, and I haven’t quite many plans yet. Fun

A little girl having breakfast in Siem Reap, Cambodia. I like the result of those blown highlights, it helps her stand out, and also induces some sense of the sweltering heat and very harsh light, and how barren and hostile her environment is. When I edited this image, it reminded me of kev carter’s famous sudan photo, but thank goodness mine is a lot less dramatic than his. I discovered Carter’s photo and its story when watching “the bang bang club” last week, a good movie about photojournalists.

So after years of toying with the idea, I finally got myself a used Leica M9. Really wanted a small camera that I could take with me anywhere and that’s also capable of making great images, no compromise. I am not new to all-manual cameras, but focusing this one definitely takes some practice. When you get everything right, though, that camera produces some really cool images. And those Leica lenses, well, they really leave up to the hype. Here’s my daughter, shot with a 30 years old 35mm summicron lens, wide open.
