Cled Lewis - Tibetan Monks at the Giantzi Monastery
15th December 2023
In: News, Short Stories
The monks in the Giantzi Monastery in Tibet. This was quite a challenge on 100 ISO Ektachrome slide film! I remember taking it at 1/2 second f2 and focussed on the brass ladle where the monk was filling the novice monks thermos flasks with yak butter tea. I managed three shots but
they were moving around, jostling really.

Comments
I think the jostling movement adds to the authenticity of the photograph and makes the experience more real. I doubt that a frozen shot would have been better.
