Photographer, Jes Aznar of the New York Times has taken a few compelling and thought-provoking photos that address key development issues that Papua New Guinea will address, ones which depend upon whether the economic benefits of the PNG LNG project in turn address the social and development issues which stain the country's reputation.

Adventures in Paradise: Images of Papua New Guinea by Michael Fletcher

Hi everyone:)

I do apologise for the MIA situation.

I have since just come across some extremely stunning video imagery taken by Michael Fletcher who is the twin brother of premier Australian landscape photographer, Christian Fletcher. while searching "Papua New Guinea" on Twitter.

HauteOC Traveller tweeted about an interview conducted with Michael Fletcher. Michael is a videographer himself however, his twin brother, Christian is one of Australia's premier photographers (he recently won 4 awards at the Australian Professional Photography Awards 2010).

My goodness but WOW! I remember why I'm proud to be Papua New Guinean again:)
