Great study of the Hill tribes Chris. Some fantastic subjects here and you’ve done well with some great shots. My favourites are still the balloons at night. Some of them are absolutely awesome.
thanks Richard
Especially like 2-5 of the b&ws. Terrific detail, 2 especially – the poise and sense of self of this pipe smoker, and the age and contrasts of focus in 3-5.
7,8 and 11 (wonderful shot captures the fun and innocence in the moment) in the coloured shots. Great sense of place in 7 and 8. Work keeps getting better Dr Bing!
