At a Monastery near Bang Melea Temple Cambodia.
I have been on the lookout for an opportunity to take a close up photo of a Monk - Today I hit the jackpot.
This Monk was staring out the window.
While we exchanged looks and I had his non verbal permission for this photo - he never posed or changed his expression at all. I guess he was really observing me rather than me observing him.

These Monks were a bit messy - I guess when they enter the Monastery at 14 they havent learned to pick up after themselves yet.
Their pet kitten sitting at the top of the stairs made a great shot against the bright orange robes
The monks do their sweeping with simple twigs tied together with orange fabric.
Monks roabs hang out to dry
Collecting bowls used by the monks during their daily ritual of travelling into the village to collect food and offerings
This old monk suggested I make a donation to their poor box, which I did...
and then he let me take his photo.
Starting at a young age 14 onwards.
