[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I was lucky to get a glimpse of a monk during an early morning prayer service at the Thiksey Monastry..i shot this way outiside the main temple..inside it was very dark..didn't use the flash for obvious reasons...managed it with a high ISO.

The chants of the monks resounded within the recesses of the monasrty and i was watching him for quite a while..had to capture that moment..

Hope you like this comp.

Cheers

Hi Sayeed,

Well, what we show the world is what we see and experience...
So, the concepts may have many a balancing... and more than that, many ways of interpretations... which is better? that depends on the way we digest it..
This is good, and my vision is satisfied in concept..
Salutes, dear friend.

Hi Sayeed

Sadly this one is very blur and dark, losing details. In other aspects, the shot is not your normal standard. TFS

cheers
bill

hi sayeed..i cant see the monk but i can see an idol or mask..is he wearing it
difficult shot to show much detail and a hefty attack of gamma may have revealed a bit more
my workshop will reveal anything i hope
cheers
geof
ps more nepal later..
hmm that workshop is a bit of a mess..sorry

AOA Sayeed,

This is a fine meaningful composition although the title and composition dont go together. The mystery in this shot is fantastic.

Regards
Kamran
