Make A Wish
After arriving (after closing time) at the site of a large Bhudda in Kyoto, a lone girl stands in the car park outside and prays silently to the statue which she can see over the wall.

Very well observed, Stuart. It's that bottle tucked under her arm while she prays that makes the photograph both genuine and different.
Stuart Gibson  Many thanks Stephen! I agree that the bottle adds a dose of "reality" to the scene.

I thought Japan, right away. My eyes were drawn to the Kirin milk coffee bottle.
Stuart Gibson  Ha! Thanks Mannii! Yeah, it kinda looks out of place there doesn't it, but I reckon it's what really makes the image.
