'Smile, shoot first, ask questions later.'
That's the philosophy that Wired co-founder and photographer followed when he was taking photographs as he ambled around in Asia during the 1970s and 1980s. The results of all that effort became the book Asia Grace in 2002.
A website full of images from the book has been kicking around in our bookmarks since then, and we figured it was about time to share it.
Pagan, BurmaThis valley created by the Irrawaddy River was once a vast metropolis. Pagan was a center of civilization about a thousand years ago. Now the city has dissappeared leaving only hundreds of temples standing among fields tended by poor farmers. Earthquakes have shaken down many of the spires, but inside are still many treasures.
If you
really like Kelly's photos and want to buy the book, there's a great deal on it
here at Powell's.
