Northern Cambodia

Well, despite my best image management intentions I have totally mixed up my images of the Khmer temples I visited in Northern Cambodia. I do know that I went to Preah Khan, Koh Ker, Preah Vihear, and Beng Meala. I suppose there were others, but, well, I guess I should start writing things down.

But so I'll just dump all Khmer temple shots into this gallery and take some guesses as to what the images are.
