"'Go Blue!' at Dawn" - Angkor Wat, Cambodia


I have a BA from Michigan and a Ph.D. from Miami ('The U') and have enjoyed season tickets to their football games for several years: both play their bowl games sequentially tomorrow night, so you know what I'll be doing.



Last summer I awakened at 4:30 a.m. in Siem Reap to take a tuk-tuk out to Angkor Wat to watch the sun rise behind it. As I was alone, several couples approached me asking if I'd take their photo against the rising sun. The young woman on the right asked and I agreed and then turned & saw their flag, and there we were: four Michigan alums with a point of instant commonality very far from home. After taking several images with their cameras & phones they let me shoot this one with mine...
