Favourite Photos

Work has been so busy that I have not had time to work on scanning in my colleciton of slides but looking through those that I have scanned is always a wonderful way to bring back memories. One of my favourite photos was one I took of a monk in Tibet over 20 years ago. He invited us in and allowed photos. The room (which was his bedroom and kitchen) was dark with sunlight streaming in the windows. The sun is so strong in Tibet in the rarefied air and always gives so much contrast in photos. I took 3 photos and they were all reasonable even though I remember leaning against a wall as I was probably shooting at less than 1/30.

Here is a double page layout of these photos.

Don't you just love the kitchen and Butter tea churner in the corner all in brass and wood.
