Yes, I know this feeling, Luko. I guess that he felt that someone is watching him. It was a very good decision to wait for your hunt, sometimes we have to be patient.
A great shot, I like the scene and the contrast. This blurred golden Buddha catches the eye. Good job.

Very nice! I love the Buddhist culture in S.E. Asia. So much so I consider myself a Buddhist now. :) So peaceful and polite. Your patience paid off. Nice subtle colors and DOF. Nice composition too. Which temple? Doi Suthep? Very nice photo. JP

Belle image Luko !
J'aime cette lumière naturelle (c'est pratique un f/1.8) et ces moines qui ont tous l'air très concentrés, sauf un...
Ton attente à été récompensé, c'est superbe.

J'aime bien cette image Luko, belle lumière, un regard de ce moine un peu perdu, moins concentré que les autres.. mais il est vrai que d'avoir de curieux objectifs ne facilitent pas...
qu'as tu fais comme PP? J'y retrouve les couleurs que Simon obtient dans ces images.

Bonne soirée, moi je m'en vais bouquiner..

Bonsoir Luko,
C'est vraiment une superbe photo. La lumière de la fin de journée donne des couleurs subtiles.
Mais comme le dit AMibe, un 1.8 aide bien sûr dans ces conditions difficile d'éclairage et pour notre plus grand bonheur ;o
J'aime beaucoup.
Merci du partage.

Wow wow wow. NIce light, and a very good DoF, nice line up. And the colors, so deep. There are so many details still to be seen.
I like their feet, I'm glad they are in the composition.
The most curious wiil be the less concentrated, the other way around is not necessarily so, I guess. He's got a nice, curious look on his face, with a little frown.
Did you have the camera in front of your face all the time? Are you sure you did nothing to draw his attention ;-)
Very nice one.

Beautiful photo, lovely light, perfect DOF. It's an elegant, sweet moment.

Now the bad news: why is his face sort of bronzey-green? With red freckles? It must be noise. I know a PP trick to help; I'll upload it as a WS.

What a nice moment. Great timing, indeed. Wonderful colours. I like the contrast between the sharp scene and the blury background. Great scene.

Fantastic moment cought on sensor, love everything about this image, mostly the look of the monk and the deep, rich colours.
I however think that the very bright statue on the left is too bright, and a bit of distraction...

Underexposure makes the monk's skin look dreadful. Buddha statue in the bokeh is overexposed and distracting. Not one of your best.

Hi Luko. Good shot here, I think, the composition works and the colors look very different but are nonetheless very appealing. The way the boy's head is turned works for me as well and the DOF is good enough to focus on the subject, but also wide enough to get a glimpse of the temple beyond. Good work.

well seen and captured. darkish color tones with meagre light gives a very special feel to this composition.

Good point, and good technique. So you can just wander freely into these places and shoot away. Sounds good, nice job here.

La lumière qui tombe sur le moine qui tourne la tête est splendide -
Les couleurs sont superbes -

Hi Luko, Great image! Love the soft bokeh and the selective focus on the subject.
[Do you have another image from here? I seem to remember having seen something like this recently. Or maybe someone else shot a very similar photo]

Hi Luko. A good shot here. I don't really have much to say or to add other than kind of wishing it was the monk onthe right who lost his concentration and turned to the side rather than the one dead center. Interesting colors here, your post processing here reminds me of some of Philip Coggan's stuff.
