The Spiritual Tourist (Part 1)

A candid shot of a buddhist monk sightseeing in Darling Harbour. Loved seeing quite a large group of them all using modern technology.
Just one texture layer and a bit of SC – thought these needed to stand on their own.

    Great selective colouring Trish. Love the clarity, great photo journalism. I can just imagine them going back to the monastery to their barren rooms, with nothing but a straw bed, bedside table and a desk with a laptop to plug their cameras into so they can upload their photos onto RB!! Great image :-)

  • Trish Woodford replied

    LOL – I wonder they have facebook? thanks for the great comment John :)))
