A slightly different and one of my favourite pictures this Venice Carnevale. In ancient times, being a King is not an easy task. Persecutions and even executions are not uncommon. Often, these stem from differing religious beliefs and values. Looking back at past histories and prophecies, of sins and holiness, which ones allow us to discern the truth from falsehood? And which ones distinguish between anti-Catholic propaganda and the actual reality of the Church? In today's societies, which groups are being persecuted? The costumes represent that of King James I of England.
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.
