[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Old monk sitting in the entrance of his room. He is 70 years old and we loved his vivacity, joy of life and wiseness.
He is a follower of the Theravada buddhist school (litt. "the teachings of the elders" or "the ancient Teaching"). In these sad days for Burma, this old man keeps faith that things will change. He deeply moved us.
As promised, we printed his picture and sent it to him.
