Taken during my first visit of Wenshu Monastery, in Chengdu. As I was walking around and was impressed by the lovely courtyard, it was apparently the end of the prayer for the monks who all left at the same time. The cloudy conditions made the place kind of dark,so their yellow clothes were sure to look good. Unfortunately, my friend and me couldn't stay as long as we may have wanted as we were kind of inspired that day, and we had committed to go and see a football game of the Chengdu Blades later in the afternoon (great fun, by the way, and we most likely made it to provincial TV that day by cheering for the locals in the "Kop" behind the goal). If you ever make it to the nice city of Chengdu, you should stay at the Mix Hostel about 10mn walk from the monastery.

I had to do a bit of post processing on that one. It was a bit tilted so I corrected that and also turned to the automatic levels and contrast...
