Burma: Spirit of Place
In the early morning mist, Monks walk quietly in a line to collect their alms in the village. Villagers kneel at the feet of a Buddha statue to pray in many temples. Fishermen ply the waters with their unique boats at sunrise and sunset. Landscapes are studded with a thousand stupa and temples. No matter where you look, the sights are awe-inspiring. As you fill your sensor with images you'll also fill your soul with a rich experience of a life-time. Join Brenda as she guides you on this amazing journey! We'll be assisted and guided by a local professional photographer, ensuring we are in the right place at the right time for making fantastic photographs.
