SOME OF LAOS


But what thus has Laos of so particular ? The virginity, probably; the serenity, doubtless.
The upheavals which got touched Asia during the last twenty years did not shake this small enclosed and fearless state which moves at its pace. It is maybe this part of mystery and discretion that seduces. The horizon is not blocked to it by futuristic skyscrapers but by Vats ( Buddhist temples) with elegant and sophisticated lines. It is necessary to know how to take its time there. The time to navigate on the Mekong river, the time to stop in a mountain village, and that to meet multicolored ethnic people.
In Laos, welcome in the authentic and serene Asia !

The pictures presented in this gallery result from two journeys made in 2001 and 2002. It was the beginning of the digital photography, I used it together with the argentic camera.

Mais qu'a donc le Laos de si particulier ? La virginité, probablement, la sérénité, sans aucun doute. Les bouleversements qui ont touché l'Asie au cours des vingt dernières années n'ont pas ébranlé ce petit état enclavé et impavide qui avance à son rythme. C'est peut-être cette part de mystère et de discrétion qui séduit. L'horizon n'y est pas barré par des gratte-ciel futuristes mais par des Vats ( temples bouddhistes ) aux lignes élégantes et raffinées. Il faut savoir y prendre son temps. Le temps de voguer sur le fleuve Mékong, le temps de s'arrêter dans un village de montagne, et celui d'y rencontrer les ethnies multicolores.
Au Laos, bienvenue dans l'Asie authentique et sereine !

Les images présentées dans cette galerie proviennent de deux voyages effectués en 2001 et 2002.
C'était le début de la photographie numérique, je l'ai utilisée conjointement avec l'appareil argentique.
