Tourists

I've been taking photos of tourists as I've always found them and the culture of tourism quite interesting. Not sure if I have any interesting enough to do anything with, but I thought I'd share some here. Will post more from different locations soon. These are from Angkor in Cambodia. The top photo are of course of Asian tourists, probably Chinese in origin (notice the black socks, sandals, gloves, utter contempt for the sun (westerners on the other hand are on the whole practically naked to ensure full sun exposure for that "I've been on vacation" tan when returning home), wanton abuse of the color pink, and of course, the classic herd touring mentality. The bottom photo is likely Japanese given what appears to be his professional photography/traveling vest and outfit. This guy is ready to leap off crazy ass ruins and do battle with Laura Croft. To me his outfit says, "Screw the unimaginable heat of Cambodia, there are f-ing snakes and mythical creatures afoot. An unprepared Indiana Jones is a dead Indiana Jones. Excuse me while I line up a great shot of these carvings with my digi-cam that I will bore my friends and family with when I get home." Or he could be thinking, "Let me take a photo of this jackass westerner taking a photo of me to complete my series."
