If you read news stories about Cambodia in the New York Times or the Washington Post foe example, it's likely you have seen photography by Heng Sinith.  You also might be asking yourself, "How does a man who lives in a third world country start to distribute photos around the world?"

Well all I can say is read his story for yourself.

It's an interesting one!

Perhaps you saw this news story about the upcoming sentencing of Kaing Guek Eav, 67, also known as Duch. Cambodia's UN-backed genocide court has set a date for the verdict in the case of the former Khmer Rouge prison chief, and it will announced on July 26, 2010.

My guess is that Heng Sinith will be there with his camera, taking pictures of Mr.Kaing Guek Eav's reaction.  Mark it on your calender!
