[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Stupa on a sunset background in Shigatse. The city has a wonderful temple-city and kora around it. It took some time while we were walking around the kora, before we noticed that the reason the Tibetans were laughing at us was that we were walking the wrong way (i.e. not clockwise) around the kora.
UPS!!!

Pointing to the sky...and what a sky it is. Hope walking the wrong way didn't bring you any bad kharma. Did you know there are two different sects: one walking clockwise, the other one anti-clockwise?
