Living in Bali for over 20 years it should hardly be surprising that I have quite a lot of photographs of Bali.

With its rich culture and abundance of beautiful places, Bali is certainly a paradise for photographers.

The colourful festivals taking place in Bali are unmatched in the world. Both in terms of frequency as well as in beauty.
