Window at Angkor Wat, Cambodia, February 2006

When the DH and I moved to China in 2005, we were excited about the opportunity to travel throughout Asia. Our first holiday we flew to Bangkok and then traveled by bus to Cambodia to visit Siem Reap. Thanks to Tales of Asia this was a piece of cake. Being in the Angkor Wat temple complex was like walking in a dream. The place was made for photography.

The theme this Friday was supposed to be warm weather photos, and I think this photo must qualify, since Siem Reap in February was pretty hot! See more Photo Friday featuring travel photos as Delicious Baby.

Beautiful. Angkor Wat is one of the places I’m desperate to see … one day. Thanks for sharing.

I’ve been dreaming for a long time of an Indochina trip with my boyfriend, who’s barely seen Asia. Angkor Wat is definitely on that list. The place simply has no bad angles. I’m also fascinated by the mystery of its civilization and people.

Sorry for the late reply – but thank you all for commenting! I am just beginning to learn more about digital photography and this was one of those photos I took with a point and shoot camera without too much thinking. Turned out pretty good. I hope to improve my skills and I think I am going to need a return trip to Siem Reap to practice!!
