Sumba, one of Indonesia’s easternmost islands, is just an hour’s flight from Bali. But Sumba is as quiet as Bali is thumping. There are no digital nomads, DJ parties or drones at sunset. The island is twice the size of Bali with one-fifth the population. The airport is a walk-across-the-tarmac affair with one baggage carousel, and the island does not have traffic jams. But whether Sumba can remain an anti-Bali is a question. It’s just starting to reach a tipping point. At the link in our bio, see more of the island. Photos by @laurynishak

Was there in 1993 took a bus boat that was grueling and travelled thru all the way to East Timor - Flores was also amazing . Samba is a bit expensive catering to high end now correct?

I went there for honeymoon at Nihiwatu Resort, now known as @nihi . It was quite different then. That resort has expanded greatly and shifted from primarily a surf resort to a more exclusive spa like retreat. We had a wonderful 10 days there surfing 4 hours a day.

Thanking the largest news company on earth for promoting your sacred quiet island is very interesting behavior. Do you want an accelerated demise like Bali only in 4x less time ?

Finding my very own Palouse landscapes in Denmark! 😁 Back in the days I always felt that Denmark was boring to photograph because of all the fields. Now I embrace them! When I learned how to approach them and get good photographs in these types of landscapes it suddenly went from something that held me back to a feature! One technique is to benefit from dappled light. Something I talk much more about in my ebook all about light in landscape photography (get it via the link in my bio). Dappled light is just incredible as it literally paints the landscapes with light and adds both depth and dimension!
