John Lander Asia Images


One of the best photographers I have come across is John Lander. He is the photographer behind Asia Images and is based in Japan with a passion for Japanese gardens, onsen, cuisine and festivals. Credits include photos and articles published by Travel+Leisure, TIME Magaine and Forbes among others. Client list: McGraw-Hill, Hachette Media, Apple Computers, Twentieth-Century Fox.

He has a massive selection of images from all of the South East Asia region and it is a pleasure to wonder through his collection and be taken on a journey around the Orient.

He also has a very detailed and well visited blog at asiaimages.blogspot.com which is well worth a good read. Follow this link to be taken to Asia Images and below you will find just a few examples of his work.

Devotional Music, Bhaktapur - the songs of Dapha music are devotional songs based on classical ragas. Dapha music is played by bands known as Dapha Khalah.
