Down memory lane…


Once in a while I happen to drop by at The Oriental hotel in Bangkok, which is a landmark stopover for jetsetters and famous people.
And recently I stumble upon an old picture from my archives…that's about 25 years ago that I took this photo of Prince Rainier of Monaco and Grâce on the starway of the original hotel. They were very nice and gave me a few minutes of their time in this beautifull lobby of the old building. This was a time when very few photographers were in Bangkok (I was based here between 1979 and 1982) and this was done between my trips to the Cambodian refugee camps or stories in Afghanistan, Korea, Japan, Beirut or Indonesia…Cool old time...
