The busy schedule of the last few days has left me with little time to post but I thought I’d share a couple of yesterday’s portraits of the Hmong people in highlands of the Mae Rim District of Chiang Mai, Thailand.

Continuing my review of the the past decade…
In 2002 I made my last major trip with with film — to Ireland. By this time I was shooting with a Nikon F100 and was just dabbling in digital with a Coolpix 990 (I’d actually had an Apple Quicktake earlier but never really found a way to [...]
