Vietnamese lotus through the lens of Pakistani diplomat

Ambassador Kohdayar Marri's close-up photos of lotus flowers show a delicate perspective, bringing out the pure beauty of Vietnamese lotus.

Pakistani Ambassador to Vietnam Kohdayar Marri has a great passion for photography. As soon as he arrived in Vietnam, he spent time exploring the beauty of Vietnam from its people to its natural landscapes. The simple, rustic beauty of Vietnamese lotus attracted Ambassador Kohdayar Marri at first sight.

Ambassador Kohdayar Marri graduated from Oxford Brooks University, UK in 2005 with a degree in Architecture and Design and a Diploma in European Film. But after returning to Pakistan, he fell in love with photography. When he returned home, in addition to his main job as an architect, he started taking up photography with the initial purpose of documenting the beautiful architectural works of the country. However, the more he took photos, the more passionate he became about the art of lines and light.

Becoming the Pakistani Ambassador to Vietnam, Mr. Kohdayar Marri also wishes to tell the story of Vietnam through photos, spreading to friends around the world about the beauty of the country and its people.
