Laughing Monk
A monk in a Bon monastery near Xiahe enjoys a game of basketball between the monks and the tourists. The basketball games we have out there are always a highlight of the trip even though the monks beat us. Every. Single. Time.

i just added a picture of the game he was watching. i have plenty of photos of monks but didn’t take many of the spectators during this game – i was designated game photographer so was trying to get good action shots.

The people of Tibet and Nepal have something about their smiles, I can’t help but smile myself.
This really is a wonderful captured moment.

Must be that such a smile comes from a very pure heart and soul, simple life as well. Very nice capture!
