This woman tends the butter lamps at the Jokhang Temple, Lhasa, Tibet 2008. Peering through a small window I saw this woman surrounded by butter lamps. She stopped for only a split second and looked directly at me before continuing with her work – so no time to adjust the camera settings. The room is lit almost entirely by the light of the butter lamps. Taken with natural light – no fill-in flash. Canon EOS 5D, 70-200 f2.8 IS lens

Feb 09- This work has been featured in the group: Himalaya Singing bowls (also known as ‘Himalayan bowls’ or ‘rin’ or suzu gongs in Japan) are a type of bell, specifically classified as a standing bell. Rather than hanging inverted or attached to a handle, standing bells sit with the bottom surface resting. The sides and rim of singing bowls vibrate to produce sound. Singing bowls were traditionally used throughout Asia as part of Bön and Tantric Buddhist sadhana. Today they are employed worldwide both within and without these spiritual traditions, for meditation, relaxation, healthcare, personal well-being and religious practice. source: Wikipedia
