Morning Alms in Luang Prabang Photo

Photographer’s Note

Every morning at around half past 5 the novices and monks of the numerous monasteries in Luang Prabang start their daily walk through the town to gather ther food for the day. All the citizens of Luang Prabang sit down on the streets to give food to the monks. Its an incredible moment, that I'll certainly not forget.

Hi Mirko,

Welcome on TE, you made a very nice picture, considering the fact that the round is early in the morning with not much light to work with. Compliments!

Hi Mirko, very nice picture of the monks in a diagonal composition. I like the small girl and the expression in her face. Well blurred background. Thanks for sharing. Cheers, Michael
