Buddha Heads

Guess who now has a ton of new monk shots? I can sense your anticipation for the hundreds of monk photographs coming your way, so I thought I’d be a nice guy and start posting a few.

We were visiting one of the thousands of wats in Luang Prabang around dusk, and had already made the pilgrimage from one end of the complex to the other before deciding to back track the way we’d come to get back out to the main road. In the meantime the temple’s monks had gathered for their evening chant. An orgy of saffron awaited. I got quite a few great shots of the gathering, but really liked this one because of the light.
