This image was taken at Siem Reap, Cambodia. This band was comprised of people who were injured by land mines. Rather than beg for money, they played music together and sounded very interesting...the gentleman on the far right is playing a leaf as a wind instrument.

I appreciate this reminder of the dreadful crimes comitted here during so many years. Forbid land mines once and for all ! Good to see how people are able to do positive things despite their tragedy and handicap. Thanks for sharing this photo, Herman,

This is a wonderful photo...yes indeed I agree with Arneh...and I like the sepia colour of the picture too...to see these men playing music, there is nothing like it...I mean music can truly soothe the deepest pains...Thank you for such a good reminder and photo...verena

Thank you for sharing a part of the world that we sometimes forget. I admire them for all the hardships they have gone through and prevailed. Could you feel the sorrow in their music as they played? Thanks again.
