Bubble Up Monk
This is one image of many on a journey that continued my walkabout into a Buddhist monastery. Some of things I saw frightened me and others just confirmed why I had to keep walking once committed and in their semi-consciousness state of awareness. This young monk plainly was in the middle of a bath standing up. In Cambodia things are extremely difficult with the lack of adults to give guidance , and in addition one might become a monk because there is no other alternative or place of refuge. In fact if there is a better option many move out and peruse it, but then when all fails they re-enter the order. I will save the full story for my journal. I hope you like this I find the low light.

I think it is fantastic. It is extremely emotive. The expression is one of pure joy at getting a bath at last. I love the motion that is included. It is a terrific shot! Very natural and uplifting.

Love the motion and his expression.
Wings  Thanks Bob.
Wings  Thanks BOB. I FELL ITS LIKE TWO IMAGES IN ONE FROZEN AND MOTION. Like two scoops of ice cream. With all the horrible enforcements which are starting to deprive the rights of people to freely photography citizens on public streets. It will becomes once we all get our heads out of the camera, and focus on the fact, that once we made images of real life and that which we did openly in public is no longer. What we shot will be just digital information about how we were.
