Photography: A “quick walk” through Manila with the Lumix GH3 Camera from Panasonic
The cool Panasonic Lumix GH3
Out now in Sports + Travel Magazine - Singapore and Hong Kong
A few weeks ago I had the opportunity to test the Panasonic Lumix DMC GH3 16.05 Megapixel Camera for Panasonic and Sports + Travel Magazine in Singapore. - A DSLR-like Micro Four Third System.
I only had a couple weekends to shoot, but for a camera this small and lightweight, this little marvel performed extremely well;
I actually fell in love with it!
I am not going to beat around the bush, but rather get to the point right away; for me a camera has to perform, including in extreme conditions.
In this post I am not about to embark on a technical and complicated test review I rather talk about the things that made me fall in love with this little marvel.
Of course before I went walkabout I quickly flipped through the manual that I found easy to read and not complicated at all, I was in no time up and running.
I really like the Magnesium alloy body, it is dust and splash proof and the
buttons and dials are well located.
Now shooting in a city environment did not give me the extreme conditions but I did manage to test the Lumix GH3 during a tropical downpour one day.
Most of my settings were on Aperture Priority using ISO 200 in most cases; see below some of the settings underneath the images.
The Lumix GH3 has a fairly fast autofocus and processing of the images with a high end SD card is just great.
But what really surprised me was the Image quality, shooting RAW and JPG for comparison and using only Aperture 3 for the post processing.
Very sharp and colors are natural and true, no Photoshop or any other software was used.

Great Image quality when used with the LUMIX G VARIO 12-35/F2.8 lens or the LUMIX G VARIO 14-140/F4.0-5.8 lens.
I liked in particular the 12-35/F2.8 lens; small and fast, a perfect companion for everyday use and ideal for street photography.
With just these two lenses you can almost cover everything, I had one mounted on the camera and put the other one in my “pocket” ideally suited for those of you who like to travel light.
Besides these two lenses, Panasonic offers a great range of other lenses fit for any type of photography.
For those of you who like the feel of a bigger camera there is the extra Battery Grip available with all the controls and additional power, available separately for the LUMIX GH3.
Oh… before I forget the LUMIX GH3 has a build-in powerful popup flash that performed just great and of course you can always get an additional flash and
mount on the available hot shoe.
Another very cool feature is the WiFi capabilities, very nice indeed, now you can use your iOS system like iPad or iPhone and Android to control your camera remotely.
I love also the swivel screen perfect for your low angle shots or shooting in awkward positions the screen is sensor activated and switching from Viewfinder to Live View is very quick. But if you don’t like this then you can always turn it off very easy.

Very handy and cool is also the viewing of your images using the touch screen, so much faster and easier than the conventional scrolling.
As mentioned above, for me a camera has to perform without getting to complicated and the Lumix GH3 does exactly that with great image quality, a superb range of lenses and other accessories.
Then of course there is the exceptional HD Video capabilities, super high quality and the camera is easy to use when shooting.
See below some more images taken with the Panasonic Lumix GH3.
I have no hesitation to take the Lumix GH3 along for any assignment be it in the desert or taking it for a walk in the busy streets of Varanasi in India.

Photography and Environment: Touching the most precious liquid on our planet… water.

Tasteless, odorless, colorless…Yet so valuable. It is Water we use for drinking, to quench thirst and dehydration. Water, the one used for bathing,
used for irrigation without all the plants would be dead including us.
Water is life, no water no life! Water, is the most valuable liquid on our planet.
"Our hands touch this life giving liquid everyday... day in day out, we worship,
bath and drink it, without we could not exist."
Water is essential for all life, plant, animal and human life. Water covers about ¾ of the Earth's surface our oceans, lake, and rivers.
It is a chemical compound composed of two elements, one oxygen and two hydrogen atoms.
No life without water, water is the same to all living beings and our hands touch it everyday but sometimes we tend to forget it’s importance and take it for granted.

Photography: Two minutes interval and a split second, the beauty about natural light.
“I love the simplicity in Nature” - GD
One afternoon during my recent trip to Cambodia (March 2013) I spotted this old, almost forgotten boat at the outer moat at Angkor Wat.
It was getting late and it didn’t look like to be a great sunset at this amazing historical site, but then I caught a glimpse of this old boat resting at the edge of the outer moat that surrounds Angkor Wat.
Subtle clouds and sky reflecting in the water, surrounding the boat in an ever fast changing light.
It didn’t take very long before the afternoon beauty had disappeared completely, but I got my images in an ever changing natural light.
I guess visitors to Angkor Wat that afternoon left disappointed since there was no real magic sunset over the main Khmer Temple, everybody walked right past the real beauty, except for me.

The image above was taken on the way to Battambang, Cambodia about a year ago when I spotted these children playing in the rice fields.
It was very late already and the sun was just about to disappear, we stopped the car and I managed to get a few frames catching this boy playing with a ball in the last light of the day.
A split second…and one frame only.

Photography: Grease and heavy metal, veering away from the norm in Phnom Penh, Cambodia
Copyright all Rights reserved. Mandatory credit with image use:

Something a bit different from Cambodia;
Grease and Heavy Metal… the story behind the photos.
I have been traveling to Cambodia for over 20 years now, covering the amazing ancient Khmer ruins, the rural life of the beautiful Cambodian people and discovering new sites deep in the jungle.
We all know and seen those images of ancient Khmer temples, pagodas, old women selling their incense and orange robed Monks walking the streets.
So I decided during my recent trip to Phnom Penh to veer away from the norm since I had a couple days of R&R.
Don’t get me wrong, I love all those Khmer ruins and rural areas dearly and I shall continue my search for the unknown or try to discover yet the undiscovered.
But this time I needed a break from the usual… during my previous visits to Phnom Penh I drove past these workshops that are scattered all over town and I thought to myself… I must get my teeth into those areas one day.
Having just completed a long Photo Tour/Workshop in Myanmar and right after 2 more in Cambodia, the last one was more on Aperture 3, I was now ready for a good break.
But knowing myself… I can’t sit still for too long and after a day’s rest I did what I been putting off for a long time, having a crack at those off the beaten track, definitely non tourist areas in the side streets of Phnom Penh.
I previously observed also that the afternoon light was key for this exercise; I hired a Tuk Tuk, told the sort of English speaking driver where to go, grabbed just one camera with my favorite 50mm lens and off I went.

It was amazing… getting right into the action at these workshops, the afternoon light filtering through those simple but yet effective work areas. It was really Grease and Heavy Metal all the way.
The objective; showing working Cambodians in their environment and on most occasions I had no problems getting the images.
Some of the workers were shy to have their photo taken; others were only to happy and even put on a show for me.
But now and then I was ask also very politely by the big boss to move on… I wonder what their “secret” was, or were there some items hidden deep in the corners, not meant to be for my eyes. I guess I never know, or I might discover it next time around.
If you ever been to the Russian market in Phnom Penh and thought wow…then think again… these heavy semi industrial areas are super impressive, we’re talking about the real big stuff and tons of it, rows and rows of massive gearboxes, mountains of springs, complete old truck chassis stacked up to the roof… I can go on and on.
(BTW: The Russian Market (Psar Toul Tom Poung in Khmer), in the southern part of Cambodia’s capital city, got its name from its popularity among Russian expatriates in the 1980s)
Using the word from the Aperture software “stacking” is about the right description for some of these places. I never seen anything like it and one starts to wonder how all of these piles/stacks hold together or even finding anything.
I know, at least with Aperture it just works perfect; after editing thousand’s of photos recently I had nothing heavy fell on top of me.
There were mechanics covered in grease, junk shops beyond your imagination, new & used spare parts, any type of tools and engines, earth moving equipment, US military jeeps, trucks and tuk tuk parts, bikes & scrap metal... I am sure if you can’t find it in Phnom Penh then you never find it anywhere else.

I only scratched the surface during my 3 day “break” but continue when I return to Phnom Penh later this year, a fascinating area and a great way shooting with very little equipment, the 50mm was just perfect.

like no Vendors, Tuk-Tuk's etc., are allowed at this place.
(as per translation from my guide) Myanmar/Burma
Wow I made it…certainly a long time since my last post but then I have been away for some 5 weeks, fighting a cold after my return, editing thousands of images and catching up with my family and friends.
I randomly selected for this post only a few photos from some of the places in Myanmar, Cambodia shall follow in my next post, this time not so far off…promise.
My very special THANKS and gratitude to all the participants who joined our last Photo Tour/Workshops to Myanmar - Cambodia and your kind and nice feedback.
(Testimonials) Thank You!
Almost like a United Nations assembly again, the participants came from: from Canada, USA, Singapore, Switzerland, Germany, Indonesia, Hong Kong, Philippines and Australia.
You have been all outright terrific!
They took some awesome photos, saw incredible places and on top of it all had lot’s of fun…
We already posted the images “Behind the Scenes” and some of the participants work at these LINKS.
Of-course it goes without saying many thanks to Arj, my trusted assistant who did an excellent job, the ground staff in Myanmar, to our super guide Tin and the drivers who made our Myanmar experience just perfect. Thank you all!
Thanks also to my good friend Hubert Weber who joined me on my second leg through Myanmar and Cambodia, thanks for your friendship and putting up with me... the old geezer, he, he.
You might note that we have updated also our Photo Tour/Workshop Calendar for 2013/2014 including some exiting trips to Sri Lanka (end of Feb) and a very special one into the Thar Desert, Rajasthan India in early March 2004.
The Thar Desert trip is almost fully booked and we have only 3 more spots available, so if you like to join this amazing Journey let us know a.s.a.p.
(this photo tour/workshop in India is for max. 8 participants only.)
This one promised to be awesome... a very special Itinerary and I have my special local guide onboard whom I have worked with many times before, getting us to some great and of the beaten track places. Plus a super bonus… towards the end of our journey in India we celebrate Holi… the festival of Color.
Later this year (2013) we have yet another trip to Cambodia and Myanmar, check out all the details on our GD Photo Tour/Workshop Calendar or you can contact me via e-mail.

Johnny Marr is to receive top NME honor… but what has photography to do with Johnny Marr?
Déjà vu… I saw yesterday on the BBC News that
Johnny Marr is to receive top NME honor.
You might ask what have I got to do with Johnny Marr?
First… This is my last post for a while, in a few days I am leaving for yet another very long Journey to Myanmar and Cambodia. I am really looking forward in meeting some new and old participants for my Photo Tours and Workshops. Please forgive me if there are no Blog posts for a few weeks, and only sporadic posts on Twitter and Facebook. But I make up for it once I return.
But now…Congratulations to a very nice person
and a super cool musician, called Johnny Marr.
Former Smiths guitarist Johnny Marr will be awarded with the Godlike Genius accolade at this year's NME Awards. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-21409581
The event takes place on 27 February at The Troxy, an east London gig venue.
Johnny Marr received also the best re-issue award for The Smiths Complete at last year's NME Awards
Well, it was way back in 1991 when I wrote and directed the music video "Get the Message" for the English band Electronic (Warner Bros., USA ) Johnny Marr and Bernard Sumner came to the Philippines from the UK to shoot the Video covering areas like the sand dunes in Ilocos, Vigan, Taal Volcano and many different places in Manila.
Credit must also go to a very good Filipino crew; lets not forget, it was 1991. Everything was shot using 35mm movie film, quiet a task them days, not to mention the postproduction.
For example our radio communications in the field looked like monsters… no iPhones them days and you almost needed an assistant to carry those huge things around.
Shooting out of a helicopter without a Gyro Stabilizer (not available) and shopping for a whole school in Ilocos; purchasing 50 pair of shoes, Pants, T-shirts etc. (at least the Kids where very happy with all their new cloths) and then there where the Kites… we had to bring in from Germany.
I never forget the face from the owner of the shoe shop…
Sir can I help you? Certainly… I need 50 pair of different sizes and color shoes!
I honestly had to reassure him that this was not a joke.
We had so many challenges those days but managed very well and ended up with a nice MTV. The whole Filipino Crew did their utmost best and performed outstanding.
I might add Johnny and Bernard are both super cool guys and exceptional Musicians and we had a real great time and lots of fun together.
Please Note:
There are actually two version of this MTV; the one on YouTube was reedited by Warner Bros. and is the one with the text blocks, but I never liked this version myself, the one that was used in the UK and the original one in my opinion was so much better.
Unfortunately I can’t find it anywhere, but see below the LINK to the Warner Bros. version:
Left to right: Johnny Marr and Bernhard Sumner
clip from the MTV 'Get the Message"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RBRXTWaTDp4
This was one of the first 35mm MTV production in the Philippines of the single “Get the Message”, that later enjoyed top ratings on international music charts.
Excerpts from an interview with Johnny and Bernard:
-The single was promoted by a colorful music video in which Marr and Sumner strolled through the Philippines and atop the still-active Taal Volcano.
Directed by Gunther Deichmann, whose published photographs in one of his Books had impressed Electronic. -
Excerpts from the BBC:
During a recent interview when ask What's the best song you've written?
Johnny replied:
The best song I've written is “Get The Message” by Electronic, with Bernard Sumner. It's great because I have no idea how it happened - I can remember starting with a bass line.
It was the second single from their 1991 debut album Electronic and was a commercial success around the world. It is a good example of Marr and Sumner's original concept of mixing the fluid synthesizers of New Order with The Smiths' rich guitar sound.

Johnny Marr plays riffs from The Smiths, The The, The Kinks
Johnny Marr plays guitar and demonstrates the differences between five Fender amps at Seedy Underbelly Studios in LA during the mixing of The Cribs album "Ignore The Ignorant" in 2009.
The opening riff is 'That Joke Isn't Funny Anymore', :22 'Dogs of Lust' by TheThe, 'All Day_ And All Of The NIght' by The KInks, 'What Difference Does It Make', 'Hey, Scenesters' by The Cribs and 'The Headmaster Ritual'. Not sure about the other (rifftastic) riffs.

Then by mid February I am leaving for some 3 weeks to Myanmar/Burma also know as the Golden Land and described by Rudyard Kipling in his novel Road to Mandalay. After Myanmar I am off to Cambodia for a few more weeks, a Country I have been visiting since 1992 with its ancient temples from the vast Khmer empire. The images on todays post are from both of these Countries.

Yangon - Myanmar/Burma
Our first Photo Tour and Workshop in 2013 is to Myanmar, this one is fully booked and so is our very special exploratory (very limited number of Participants) trip to Cambodia.
I like to call this one… rural exploration and the mighty Tonle Sap Lake… there is a lot more to explore and discover in CAMBODIA, besides amazing Temples and Monks, hence my reason for choosing different images for this post, more on this subject after my return…
After our special Photo Tour in Cambodia I am going to hang around for another 2 weeks for a very private Photo Tour and additional photography for confirmed articles.

Now, if you have missed out on these trips, don’t worry we have additional Photo Tours and Workshops to Myanmar/Burma and Cambodia later in the Year; for all our destinations and more details check our Photo Tours and Workshop Calendar ASIA 2013.
Once I am on the road I have little time and at some destinations no Internet connections so posting anything will have to wait until I have returned. But I try my best and stay in touch via Face Book and Twitter whenever possible and thanks again for all your support. GD

Almost in one day… I got the "Beatles in a Sexy Street" a Condom Machine, well that was another day in my small home town. A crooked House, yellow footprints, homeless people, colorful Graffiti, an Octopus on the wall and the saddle-less push bike in Paris…
2012 is gone and we’re already two days into 2013 and this is my first Blog post for the year.

A Sexy Bus Stop in Hamburg, Germany
The last two-month in 2012 had been very hectic to say the least, traveling to Germany and later to France for my Exhibition. (running until the end of February)
I had very little time for photography on this trip but like to share with you some interesting, bizarre and weird images that crossed my path during my stay in Germany and Paris.

________________________________________________
We also updated our Photo Tour and Workshop Site changed and listed some very interesting Journeys for 2013 in the Calendar.
Our first two Photo Tours to Burma/Myanmar and Cambodia starting in February are fully booked now and I am really looking forward to meet new participants and see familiar faces again.
This time we have participants from Australia, Canada, Switzerland, Germany, USA, Philippines, Singapore, Hong Kong, Indonesia and Bangladesh.
We start in Burma by mid February with two separate tours and after a few weeks I continue to Cambodia with two special Photo Tours back to back. By middle of February I am very much out of touch for some six weeks, so please forgive me if my Blogs, FB entries will be very thin during that time.
Plus I have to squeeze in a trip to Palawan and Boracay Island in the Philippines, I guess not a bad start for the
New Year.

Travel Photography Cambodia: The story behind the photos, a remarkable woman called Chea Samy
The story behind the photos… a remarkable woman called Chea Samy, the survival of traditional Khmer Dance in Cambodia.
Copyright all Rights reserved. Mandatory credit with image use:

Traditional Khmer dancer outside at the Royal Performing Hall
at the Phnom Penh Grand Palace, Cambodia.
This post is about a remarkable woman whom I meet in Cambodia exactly 20 years ago, it is also my last post for 2012. Still busy with all the arrangements for our upcoming tour to Myanmar and Cambodia in February and March.
1992… the Mekong River… on assignment for Animan Magazine; traveling through Thailand, Laos, Vietnam and Cambodia for some 3 month following the Mekong River where ever possible.
…I arrived on a hot humid day in Phnom Penh, Cambodia; it was the same day the United Nations Peace keeping forces swarmed in from all over the world, trying to stabilize the war ravaged but ever so beautiful Country.
I was still on my Mekong trip but now found myself right in the middle of all this chaos and UN berets, I had completed Thailand and Laos, now it was Cambodia where the mighty Mekong River is part of everyday life. The next stop was Vietnam by road from Phnom Penh but that is another story. BTW…the Mekong story got published a few month later and became a 24-page article in Animan Magazine.
Hanging around those days was a very different story, it was almost like “Wild West” in the streets of Phnom Penh with Pol Pot still hiding deep in the Cambodian Jungle. Besides the country was littered with land mines and venturing out in the countryside was a high risk factor.

Traditional Khmer carvings APSARA can be found at Angkor Wat
and many other Khmer Temple Ruins in Cambodia.
Part of my Mekong River story was to capture also the traditional and culture aspect; places the Mekong touched on his long Journey and this is how I found this truly remarkable women in Phnom Penh.
Her name was Chea Samy… dedicating her time to the traditional form of Khmer dances, unfortunately Chea passed away some years ago but she will be long remembered for her passion and dedication to Khmer Art.

Chea Samy, preparing one of the traditional Khmer dancers at
the Royal Performing Hall at the Phnom Penh Grand Palace, Cambodia.
Chea Samy was a teacher before Pol Pot arrived, but went into hiding as a vegetable vendor during the horrific times of the Pol Pot regime that had no tolerance for Intellectuals or for the art in Cambodia.
Having survived the horrific years of Pol Pot, Chea was instrumental in reviving the traditional Khmer dancers.
I meet her in an old damaged school house where she was teaching the Khmer Dances, at the time Chea was the only surviving person who could teach these traditional dances.
I took some photos but thought it would be nice to see them also perform again at the Grand Palace adding the grace to their almost forgotten art.
So I went to work… after three days of red tape and countless discussions I finally got permission from the Ministry to photograph this group of dancers with Chea Samy at the Royal Palace.
When I told Chea the news a few days later a big smile crossed her face and she beamed with joy.
Though Chea Samy has since passed away the APSARA Arts Association is still very active in preserving traditional arts in Cambodia, an important part of Cambodia's Culture and rich History.

Traditional Khmer Dances – it takes 6 years to learn and 9 years to perfect for these amazing and beautiful dancing skills.

Last November has been very hectic with some private/personal and very exclusive Photography and Aperture 3 tutorials in the Philippines and Germany and of course my Solo Photo Exhibition in Paris, France at the end of the month.
It was in early November; and it all started with a personal Photography trip for a couple of my clients from the US and Thailand in the Mt. Pinatubo Volcano area including some serious Aperture 3 training.
After one week and only one day to spare I left for Germany; here I visited my hometown and then took the train to Hamburg for some scheduled meetings with Magazine editors and yet another private session on Aperture 3.

Big thanks to my good friend Mojan who made some of my travel arrangements in Germany and traveled all the way from Duesseldorf to Hamburg just to catch up with me.
I also caught up with my good old buddy and exceptional Photo Editor Klaus Plaumann from CEPIC Center of the Picture Industry, had a great dinner together and chatted about the good old days.
iPhone memories, with Klaus Plaumann and Mojan in Hamburg, Germany and Jacques in Paris
After a few days in Hamburg I left for Paris for my solo Photo Exhibition; Les Voyages de Gunther Deichmann, a great event and the Exhibition will run until the end of February 2013.
My sincere thanks to Jacques, Pierre and Sarah from ANA Agency who worked so hard during the last few days prior the opening. Besides making last minute arrangements in the Gallery I got spoiled with good French wine and food during my stay… oh how I miss this already… oh well, my favorite hangout in Manila the Cave Wine Bar in Yakal street is not so far away…

The opening of the Exhibition was great with lots of interesting people attending including Editors from some major French Magazines. I made new friends and connected with some cool people from the photo and publishing industry.
It was during opening night when the Editor from the French Geo Magazine approached and handed me fresh of the press the December 2012 Issue of Geo Histoire featuring a double page spread of one of my images.
Now the evening was complete…
The double page in the December 2012 Issue of Geo Histoire, article on Buddhism
While having breakfast the following morning at my Hotel I received an email that one of my images made the cover of the Asian Geographic Passport Magazine in Singapore, including a 10 page article with my images and text by Carmela Cruz on Micronesia.
This morning news developed later into a nice French lunch with Jacques, at our by now well visited Restaurant near the agency.
Of course with the wine not far off…
Cover of the December 2012 issue of Asian Geographic Passport Magazine Singapore, and a 10 page article on Micronesia.

I actually had very little time for photography during the entire trip but I did managed to squeeze in a few images during my stay in Germany and France, and one of them made it into the exhibition, a last minute call after Jacques sternly insisted on it.
