Morning Blessing Photo

Photographer’s Note

When offering elms to monks in the morning, people who do the offering usually leave a glass of water for the monks to pray and offer blessing. After that, they sprinkle the water in front of their house to keep away bad spirit and or for good luck.

Okay, there's been couple of questions to why I cropped too much away of the left arm. click on workshop to compared and my see my explanation. Let me know what you think.

A good picture and an informative note. A pity the left arm of the monk is halfway out of the frame, but still a great upload. Thanks, Way Ne Lim.

Hi Way Ne. Lovely work- serene, calming, gentle. The light contributes to the mood, so does the monk's expression and measured gesture. Regards. Klaudio.
