After our very successful research tour I would like to invite you to join us on an exciting tour of Bangladesh and discover the diverse and captivating beauty of this vibrant nation as we explore its iconic locations and uncover its hidden gems. Our journey begins in the bustling capital city of Dhaka, where we immerse ourselves in the vibrant chaos of Kawran Bazaar. Here, we'll capture the hustle and bustle of the capitals biggest wholesale fruit, vegetable and fish markets. A kaleidoscope of lighting conditions, reveal endless transactions to our cameras in earnest gestures and all manner of textures and colour’s get taken away by porters in head baskets or rickshaws. The atmosphere is more lively and friendly than you can imagine but a great indication of things to come.
From here, we head south towards the Ganges Delta and the city of Barisal were we explore a brick factories and floating rice market’s, where the early morning mist creates an ethereal atmosphere. We'll capture the rustic beauty of brick-making and the vibrant atmosphere of floating market’s, where villagers trade their harvest on wooden boats, their voices echoing across the water.
Back in Dhaka, we visit the Buriganga River where we'll photograph the morning activity along the riverbanks. Commuters cross the river by small paddle boat taxi’s at the same time as market traders set up their stalls. We then cross the river ourselves to visit ship yards when skilled workers arrive to craft intricate vessels. The rhythmic sound of hammers and saws provides the backdrop to our photography as we document these age-old crafting techniques.
Chittagong, is the nations most industrious of cities and we go out of our way to visit small streets were aluminum pots and pans are forged, laved and sold. The next morning we visit the busiest of fishing ports you are likely to see anywhere. It’s so busy it’s difficult to arrest individual frames but a better problem to have than not enough happening to keep you interested.
Rangamati welcomes us with the cultural richness of its tribal bazaar, where we'll engage with indigenous communities, capture their traditions, and photograph the vibrant costumes on display. The fascinating interplay of light and shadow in the covered market creates dramatic scenes perfect for photography. At nearby Lake Kaptai, we'll explore its serene waters and capture the tranquility and reflections of this picturesque setting, especially during the golden hours of sunrise and sunset.
Our journey then takes us to Bandarban, where we embark on a photographic adventure along the Sangu River, capturing the rugged landscapes and the natural beauty that surrounds this region. The mist-shrouded hills and verdant valleys provide a stunning backdrop for visiting hidden hill tribes that rival the authentic villages we used to find in Myanmar.
Finally, we arrive at Cox's Bazar, a coastal paradise where we'll photograph the world's longest natural sandy beach, dotted with iconic moon-shaped boats. We'll also witness the scenes at the dry-fishing yards, where locals work to process their daily catch, creating compelling compositions of light, texture, and human activity. This is a perfect opportunity to discover the captivating beauty of this diverse nation and immerse yourself in its vibrant culture.
