Description: Return to my Motherland after 43 years<\/p>\n

Kieulan Nguyen has been doing photography for a long time, but it wasn\u2019t until 2010 that she took her hobby seriously.  Kieulan is a Canon and Fuji shooter. She enjoys macro, landscape, urban photography. Now that her children are grown up, she has more time to travel so travel photography is something that now interests her.  Because photography keeps evolving, she never stops learning. She is always looking to bring new and fresh air into her pictures. Being creative is very important for her because it reminds her that she does not take pictures, but rather makes pictures.  <\/span><\/p>\n

Kieulan often thought there were so many countries she would love to visit. Viet Nam rarely made her bucket list despite it being her motherland.  After seeing so many wonderful images taken of her country, her desire to go home grew over time. So after a 43 year absence, on a spur of the moment in 2018, she agreed to join her friends to go back for 3 weeks.  That was the best decision she has made. <\/span><\/p>\n

K<\/span>ieulan’s collection is of photos she took during her trip to Viet Nam.  During her visit she spent 12 days driving along many winding country roads from Ha Noi to Ha Giang, Hue, Hoi An, Phan Rang and Phan R. Most of the time it rained, but it did not stop her.  Every place she visited had its own charm and beauty. She loved every moment she was there. Through her modest lens, she wants to share with you these images of a beautiful country she is so proud to call home.<\/span><\/p>\n

Until then \u2026 Viet Nam, she will definitely return!<\/span><\/p>\n
