To behold the ruins of Angkor Wat from afar is more like an approach to a distant mountain range.
Dawn's light began to reveal more and more of the details around us: carved stone, and arches crafted by Khmer architects long ago. Magical morning light can induce one's imagination in a place like this. The jungle had hidden these majestic temples for hundreds of years.
The creation of the site, the meticulous craftsmanship and the disappearance of the inhabitants are still being investigated. I wanted to capture some of the energy and mystique of this amazing place.
