Great shots Steve... I wish I'd been there - it looks very special...
I'm surprised that everyone is so welcoming of cameras... I can't imagine that happening at a church service or similar event...

Great shots, Steve really like the monks and the one of the youngster with dad.
It was a really great day, want to thank Birdy for organising it and would really like to thank the Buddhist community that welcomed us and tolerated our presence on their special day.
Just another thing.......... great to meet the members of the forum and to be given some advice that I hope will show up in my photography in future postings.
Cheers,
Terry

Yedrup and All,
We will have another time to do the Photoshop workshop at the monastery in the near future, I have been discussed with its management and Matt.K yesterday.
We will use their conference room and run a full day workshop there with the opportunity of practicing your learning & skills on the spot.
Mattk and myself had a great day yesterday with them also.

Perhaps in July, let Matt.K sort out what does he wants to introduce to
PS and PPing, the workshop will take up to 20 people full day.

Sounds like an awesome idea. Hopefully I'll get to attend.

Like the shots. They give a nice feel for the day. The one of the young kid looking over dad's shoulder is my favourite. Good to see the 85/1.4 is getting plenty of action too.

Excellent shots! (Why does the other guys pictures always look sharper than mine?). Interesting seeing what others saw at the same venue. Had a great day thanks to Birddog and the very tolerent and patient worshippers at the temple. It's a privilege to get that kind of access.
