Angkor Thom Nun

OK. Not a monk. I call them nuns, but haven’t a clue to what the female version of a monk is really called. You run across these ladies more in Cambodia than Thailand. Always with the monks’ shaved head. This one was cleaning up a minor shrine area behind the Bayon in Angkor Thom. As I was snapping away while she swept the area, another touri with a camera came by. She noticed. And decided to sit down and pose for him. I usually don’t care for the posed shots, but this face just can not be denied!
