Cambodia, part 1: Angkor Wat

Bangkok

Once again, having an archeologist for a brother presented me with a chance to travel and explore one of the wonders of the world. This time it was the Angkor temples in Cambodia, but on the way I spent some time visiting Bangkok.

Something New

I'm still here. I just haven't had a lot of new pictures to post, but here's a few that I've taken this year.

Regatta on the Charles, Boston

U.S. Capitol, Washington

Empire State Building, New York

It's been a while since I posted any new pictures, but I happened to be out with my camera today when I was struck by the beauty of the new fallen snow.

I've been surprisingly busy of late, but I thought I'd add a dash of color.
