"Thailand is so stunningly beautiful that one simply shakes one’s head, closes one’s eyes and surrenders in disbelief. While there are a few urban sprawls, most of Thailand is a counterpane of lush rubber plantations, swathes of bright green rice paddies, vast coconut-palm forests, deserted white beaches, turquoise translucent water, and rolling hills guardianed by pairs of caribou, barrels of monkeys and flights of fancy. On top of it all, one is cosseted by the most caring people in the universe.

"Chiang Mai, established in the late 13th century, is the principal religious center in northern Thailand. Situated on the banks of the River Ping and surrounded by green hills and lazing rivers, the city is blessed with a rich history, friendly citizens, and a cool, dry climate.

I created this image during a trip to Wat Prathat Doi Suthep, perhaps Thailand's most revered temple, that is located half way up the mountain that overlooks Chiang Mai.

The next is a photograph of one of the mystical guardians at the Royal Palace in Bangkok. The film didn't rewind properly in my Hasselblad and when I opened the back, it got sun-struck...making the image even more mystical!

I call it WAT?! Bangkok

Here is a closer view without the frame.

Our philosophy:

The Edward Carter Galleries maintain a large inventory of signed, original Ansel Adams photographs, feature the work of other masters of the 19th and 20th centuries, and represent some of today’s most talented artists.

Redefining the Gallery Experience:
· We’re more interested in helping you appreciate photography than we are in selling you a photograph.
· When you fall in love with a particular image, we’ll do everything we can to help you acquire it.
· When you buy it, you’re not a "customer," you’re our client—there’s a big difference!
· As you become a collector, our experts will always be at your service.
· With clients and associates worldwide, we’ll help you manage your portfolio through sales as well as acquisitions.
· A Certificate of Authenticity and Insurance Appraisal accompanies each of our photographs.

“Our galleries help people appreciate the art of the craft, and understand how fine photography appreciates.” Edward Carter
