    The Art of Travel Medicine

The Land of the Thunder Dragon...the journey within Shangri-La was not easy...a lot of rainy and misty weather, coupled with landslides and road blocks...but the people were wonderful and their festivals full of Colours!

Robin Yong is a multi-award winning Travel Photographer. He enjoys traveling to exotic destinations to befriend and photograph the locals. He is best known for his work on the Omo Valley tribes in Ethiopia, the Venetian Masked models in Venice, the Bokator boxers of Cambodia and the Maikos of Kyoto. He calls these works his Travel Portraits, his Art of Travel Medicine. For most of his works, he does not use flash, reflectors or artificial lighting, depending solely on natural lighting alone. The photos are often dramatic, colourful and extremely beautiful.
