I like the processing, too. It adds intensity to the spiritual appearance of these young monks and enhances their seemingly deep devotion. Beautiful, Ron! shu
Nico, They were not as stationary as statues but were economical in their movements, especially their hands which were held in a "receiving" position. A bit of blur was added to give it a dreamy look. Ron.
Wow, Ron, this is a fascinating image. Were they stationary in there respective positions when you took the shot, or were they moving their hands, heads, etc? Is it just my imagination, or does it look as if a blurred layer was added? I like it a lot!!
