On a warm July day neighborhood children play in a patrol car. At another time, an officer reminisced about wintry midnight tours, about the isolation he felt in the patrol car. Night after night he drove the same streets saw the same drunks, homeless ones, addicts, whom he had to move on, clearing the street. He had his anxieties. What, he wondered, would he do if one night they were gone? Whom would he talk to?, from the series "Police Work"

In Cambodia today, at the area of Angkor, miles of temples, statues and other works of antiquity are being uncovered from their jungle bed and opened up for tourist and scholarly interest. Some 600 different buildings, most temples of one sort or the other, show a skill in development that matched that of the ancient Egyptians. Canals, waterways and other water projects were but some creations about the greatest works: the temples. Here a tourist studies the Prah Palilay temple, cut loose from its jungle cover in the Royal Palace grounds of Angkor Thom
