Koh Rong Island, Cambodia

Koh Rong, is the second largest island of Cambodia. The word Rong might refer to

an old term for cave or tunnel but it can also referred to the old Khmer word for

shelter, e.g. shelter island. Located about 25 kilometers off the coast in the Gulf of

Thailand, 43 km of its entire coastline of 61 km are beaches. In absence of even the

most basic infrastructure, transport by boat is required to all settlements and holiday

resorts, which are scattered all over the many beaches.

This image consists of 5 different exposures including a long exposure to create the

"foamy water", processed in Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop.

Michel,  I find your narrative story fascinating.  And, it helps in imagining your image.  Thanks for the insights.   Larry

I find your description of the place fascinating. There must be a very slow pace of life and I would imagine that it is a relaxing haven far removed from the hustle and bustle of city life. Your image conveys the peaceful nature of the location.
