Great shot. Really nice colors. I loved this monastary - Ganden Sumtseling Gompa.

Grate portrait and very good lighting.
What I liked the most is the shadow that emphasize the colors of the monk
tnx Fabian

You've got the light and DoF spot on. The way the novice is hiding behind his robe really adds something to this photo... good work!

One of the greatest pictures from the famous Shangri-la area!
Not only "fantastic place to hang around for a while", there must be several serious reasons why Dr. Francis Rock spent most of his life here. I wish I could lay my feet on this town...

Thank you.

Great power throughout this photo. The first thing to draw me in was the turquoise around the belt, but then as you scan upwards, the mischievous stare from the eyes. Quite remarkable. Very simple and to the point with this portrait. Great job.
