Travels with my Q – Bali

Roaming with my Leica Q in Bali from Kuta to Ubud in April 2019.

It was worth every minute of it and certainly put a different view on preconceived ideas. Tourists. Scooters. Colours. Temples. Festivals. Volcanoes.

Below are a few images of Bali reflecting that broader perspective.
