Monks at Play

Posted by Josh (Pasadena, United States) on 26 February 2008 in People & Portrait.

While traveling I got the opportunity to meet some young Buddhist monks on several occasions. These guys posed for pictures for us, and asked us to do the same! I guess it was just as interesting for them to get pictures of an American or Brit as it was for us to get pictures of them. Funny how cultures interact at times like that...

This shot is also from the Buddha Park in Laos, same as my image 2 days ago. This is the small crawlspace entrance to a large tower overlooking the park, full of other statues and dust and spiders. Fun times.
