Stay at Anantara Angkor and enjoy an exclusive photography tour of Angkor Wat with famous photographer John McDermott.
John McDermott first came to Angkor in 1995 to witness a total eclipse of the sun. Inspired by the surreal light of the eclipse, he spent over a decade creating a definitive artistic portrait of the ancient Khmer temples before the arrival of tourism. These magical images reveal a hidden realm of Angkor temples lost in the forest, conjuring a 19th century explorer’s dream.
John’s evocative Angkor photography can be seen in his fine art book “Elegy: Reflections on Angkor”
