Preah Khan Temple

Chasing the Monks

After being in and around various temples for more than a week,
one starts feeling a sort of 'temple fatigue' when all temples start looking
the same to the eye and the mind. Luckily I had some experience with that from years ago,
photographing similar temples in Hampi, India. Call me a monk chaser,
but thats what I started doing to get over the temple fatigue.
The bright orange robes of the monks were like a 'hyphenation' around
the repetitive textures, tones and design of the
temples and provided some interesting opportunities for composition.

Your Monk chasing really rewarded you and us with the fine photographs. I do love that orange against the dark walls of the temples. V
