    Just horrific! What an amazing opportunity for you to get the chance to visit the Killing Fields…a place you only knew of through the news as a young man.

      I remember seeing the photos decades ago – they never left my mind.

    What a horrific and sad place. I remember hearing accounts in the news but the details and pictures are truly chilling.

      Very hard. Nothing is hidden from the visitors, but the goal is to educate which is why I decided to write about it.

    I usually have my breath taken away by the beauty of your pictures and words along side. Today I had a pit in my stomach and had a hard time looking at all your pictures and taking in your words.

    It was one of the most sobering experiences – to walk around those fields,to look at the “killing trees” and feel the tremendous loss of human life and potential. It makes it even worse when you look at all the beautiful children and realize what could have been. I am from Argentina and as you say, it could happen again and it did in a smaller degree in my country – shame on humankind that we allow such history to be repeated. Thanks for the photographs and the moving writing – I did not have the heart to take pictures – you did a great job capturing it all.

      So glad to hear your perspective, Monica. I didn’t want to take pictures either, but in the end decided it was worth sharing. Cambodians want the world to understand what happened and that it will continue unless we speak up.

    Hi Tim,
    As you see I am doing catch up reading, what a difficult story to read, a picture is worth a thousand words. Thanks for sharing, although it sends chills up my spine. What a journey!
