Ta Prohm was one of my favourite temples at the Angkor Complex in Cambodia. This temple has been made famous recently as it features in the Tomb Raider movie. I loved this temple, as parts of the rocks and walls are being held together by all the trees growing up and around this complex. It’s also the reason why some of the temple is in ruin, because the trees have knocked it over as they have outgrown the temple. I guess it’s like nature is taking this temple back over, taking it back into the jungle from which it came. This was one of the collapsed walls we saw while we were exploring this massive complex.

Wez loves taking landscape and travel photographs, and sharing these as inspiration to travel. He has a goal to visit every Hard Rock Cafe in the world and have a shot in each of them. He can also eat nearly anything, and will try most things at least once.

Thanks for saying Tom, I really appreciate it.
Yeah I want to get back there, and spend a good few weeks there I think, photographing and exploring all throughout the complex.

One of mine too, I’m also a fan of the Bayon temple, which I’ll have pictures of coming up soon.
