Book Synopsis

THE STARS ARE FIRE a Photography Book by JULIAN BOUND

A photographic collection of people from across the world by National Geographic contributor and award winning documentary photographer Julian Bound.

Taken over a ten year period whilst living on the road travelling throughout the continents of Asia and South East Asia, the following collection of portraiture work represents the diversity of people found within the countries of Nepal, Thailand, Bhutan, Cambodia, Japan, India, Tibet, Myanmar and Indonesia.

From portraiture of the women of Nepal's Jethal Village on the borderlands of Tibet to the rickshaw drivers of downtown Malang city on the Indonesian island of Java, and from Amritsar's Golden Temple in the heart of The Punjab to the Buddhist monks of Shigatse's Tashi Lhunpo Monastery of the Tibetan midlands, 'The Stars Are Fire' presents an insight into the world and its range of communities, with only a brief accompanying outline telling of each photograph's location - as it is the photograph itself which tells the story.

THAILAND
BHUTAN
CAMBODIA
JAPAN
INDIA

A selection of intimate portraiture photography from nine countries and two continents.
