Travel photography

In late March and early April, the intense heat of the summer hasn’t yet arrived. The temperatures at this time of year average in the early 20s so our days during the photography tour will be comfortable. So we’ll be free to concentrate on getting stunning travel imagery documenting this beautiful country in Central Asia.
