    Luang Prabang, monks from Wat Sirimounkhoun coming out daily in the morning to ask for alms. they come out very early from about 5am when it is still dark. This picture was taken around 7 or slightly later than 7 where the bright day light is more than what the sensor handles...

    For further information regarding aims, I had read it in Betti's thread on Luang Prabang / 2007 and here is the link on Richard wrote about the alms round in LP here, with pictures http://richardbarrow.com/visiting-la...g-prabang.html
