POSTCARDS FROM VIETNAM
From the crowded waterways and lively floating markets
of the Mekong Delta, to the misty mountains and colorful minorities of the remote
North, this beautifully photographed book takes us on a journey through a fascinating
and diverse country and offers insights into the daily lives of the Vietnamese
people.
An excellent pictorial introduction to this enigmatic and dynamic country.
About the author:
Dutch photographer Hans Kemp has
spent most of his adult live photographing all corners of Asia. His images and
stories have appeared in numerous magazines across all continents.
He currently
resides in Vietnam from where he continues traveling and photographing the region,
looking for those little known, unique aspects of everyday life.
My first book about Vietnam
is a collection of images that have appeared on postcards over the years. Traveling
around Vietnam has become a lot easier compared to those days when you needed
a permit everywhere you went. Many aspects of life in Vietnam have changed since
the first of those postcards came out yet the photos have an inherent timelessness
that puts many of them on my list of favorite images.

We have just returned from
Vietnam with your book in our backpack. Never before have we seen a trip with
all its experiences so beautifully captured in a book. A great memory of a fascinating
country.
