A truck driver shows off his rings in Jakarta, Indonesia. Rings are a status symbol amongst working-class men here, often made from silver with a large coloured stone, highly polished, and keenly bought and traded at roadside stalls. #Streetportrait #workingmen #Streetphotography #Jakarta #Indonesia

Daybreak in Amarapura, outside of Mandalay, Myanmar. Apparently, the girl sleeps outside the shophouse when it's too hot inside. #Portrait #Photography #Travel #Children #Myanmar

Went back home recently to Bayside, Melbourne, Australia, to visit family. No better place to think about life than gazing at the waves, warmed by the summer sun. #Photography #Portrait #Summer #Beach #Frankston #Victoria #Australia

Mandalay railway station, before the coup. I discovered this man in his deep blue longyi and gorgeous purple scarf enjoying a smoke while patiently awaiting his morning train. He was happy to pose for a photo. #photography #streetportrait #Myanmar #Mandalay #travel

Burmese woman (just before the coup). Story of the image: In Bago, walking back from the train station, I saw this woman in her shophouse's parlour. I pointed to my camera and implored her for a photo. I took 1 image. With a wei, I bid her farewell. #photography #portrait #serendipity #Bago #Myanmar

There are a few ways to take environmental portraits: run and gun style, a set up with a local fixer, or just show up and socialise. The latter, while difficult, is ultimately the most rewarding. #photography #travel #environmental_portraits #workers #SriLanka
