Shwezigon monks. by

These monks paused in the light to pose for a tourist on the other side of the pillars. A lucky shot and one of my favourite. (Bagan – Myanmar).
Canon 350d.

    Stunning color & light. What a beautiful photo. I don’t know when you took this, but I pray they’re all safe…

  • Thanks Rubes. Took this in January 2006 in Bagan, which is a magic place. I didn’t hear of any serious problems in that area but there may have been. I truly hope not.
