Harvest Mask.

Paro Valley - West Bhutan.

On s’est arrêté dans un hameau où les cultivateurs battaient le riz. Quelle ne fut pas notre surprise de découvrir que pour se protéger de la poussière l’un d’eux portait un masque de Tshechu probablement emprunté au monastère tout proche !

We stopped in a hamlet where farmers thresh the rice. What was not our surprise to discover that to protect himsef from dust one of them was wearing a mask of Tshechu probably borrowed from the nearby monastery!

Best viewed in original size.

A great action shot of the work of harvesting, especially since you captured the mask.

How interesting. The mask really ups the impact for me and cool that he is looking straight at ya.

I wouldn't want to meet him on a poorly lit street. Shades of Dia De Los Muertos of our Mexican community.
