Some portraits of Myanmar, taken on our recent, 2-week recce trip to Burma (Myanmar). Internet access is, to say the least, limited and since we’ve been a bit rushed off our feet since our return to the Chiang Mai office so we’ll just stick up a few Burma photos for today and ‘normal’ service will be resumed asap! Actually took some 2,000 photos in 12 days – it’s a paradise for amateurs of photography – so a bit difficult to make a selection but we’ll begin with this Portraits of Myanmar – a selection of a few people photos.
