Photographing With Friends at Wat Phnom

Wat Phnom is the most memorable park in the city of Phnom Penh. In many ways, it is a park that has the same components as any center-city park in the world. Being Cambodia, there is a twist. Troops of wild monkeys roam in the trees and on the ground, just looking for opportunity and trouble. Also in the trees, very high-up, are thousands of three to five pound bats with two-foot wing-spans sleeping until the twilight. You wouldn't know they were there unless you were told to look.
And then there is 46 year-old Sambo the elephant.
Along on this adventure is Kavita, Lisa and Long. A bit more about these people in the following blog which was also shot the same day as this one.
