This work is a series of buddhas hung in the shape of a stupa. It was for an exhibition exploring the different strains of buddhism practices across Asia. Amazing.
(In general, this seemed like an amazing museum, with great exhibits. I'd love to visit again.)
Taken with the intent of converting to black and white; should be a challenging exercise with a black bowl on black seamless. Results coming shortly...

Belgium. Planckendael Animal Park
Planckendael has a family of 6 female Asian elephants and 2 males.
The matriarch is Dumbo, Khaing Phyo Phyo is mother to May Tagu, Kai Mook and Qiyo. Ad then there is auntie Yu Yu Yin.
The males are Chang (father to Qiyo) and Kanvar, a young bull.
3 females are currently expecting, Khaing Phyo Phyo and her 2 elder daughters May Tagu and Kai Mook.
Actually Kai Mook was the first elephant ever born in Belgium.
Now Chang has done his job fathering 4 babies, he's going to leave soon and will be replaced by Kanvar.

Early into a January Bali visit, we organised to go on a 25 kilometre bicycle ride through the rice fields and villages.
We continued through craft villages, and ended up at an elephant sanctuary (more about those places some other time). While in the stands for the elephant performance, I looked behind us to see men tilling fields; the shrines between the paddies watched over their work.

fireworks came out giddily, as not everyone celebrated new year here. as a Buddhist nation, Cambodia celebrates new year on April.
