Hi Paolo, this shot shows very well the Burmese morning ritual of collection for monasteries. I like the picture, although in my opinion it could be a little sharper, and I think would work better as a horizontal, since the line of monks is the most important thing here and there is a nice contrast against the building, so the sky and the tree dont add much. Nice piture anyway, well seen. Regards
Daniel

I like the repetition of the line of monks against the line formed by the window openings. The perspective into the distance is well done and ends at just the right spot. The sky is interesting and the tree adds some color. These elements make it work.

Great shot, Paolo. You will soon have the entire world in pictures. Congratulations.
