Monks of Laos

So I am trying my best to work through images before I get completely buried w/ work this week. I started out trying to compartmentalize the images and choose to start w/ something that I never grew tired of seeing, the monks. I was always reaching for my camera the first few days of the trip everytime a monk was w/in eyesight. Their orange robes against the textures of the street scene was always stunning. In the morning if you wake early enough you can watch a beautiful scene that plays out every morning. The monks pound a drum outside the temple and then exit the Wat grounds to take alms. It definitely got my photographic juices pumping.
Here are my favorites...
