Three Buddhist monks at the ruins of Wat Chaiwatthanaram in the ancient capital of Ayutthaya.
Wikipedia: Wat Chaiwatthanaram is a Buddhist temple in the city of Ayutthaya Historical Park, Thailand, on the west bank of the Chao Phraya River, outside Ayutthaya island. It is one of Ayutthaya's best known temples and a major tourist attraction.
The temple was constructed in 1630 by the king, Prasat Thong, as the first temple of his reign, as a memorial of his mother's residence in that area. The temple's name literally means the Temple of long reign and glorious era. It was designed in Khmer style to gain Buddhist merit and as a memorial to his mother, however Prince Damrong believed it was built to celebrate Ayutthaya Kingdom's victory over Longvek.
A fabulous packhorse bridge, with some romantic stories. Bit scary to cross though - it's a long drop off the side!
The parakeets would get the beautiful strawberries from the farmer's field, take a little bite then drop it.
Thanks so much for the visit!

Black & White and color By calculating the
exposure of light.
The other important point in taking a good photo and the composition.
The classic mistake is to rush when a scene seems interesting, we do not check the edges of the canal and try to fit as many elements as possible in the direction no we have to make a choice and it is arranged to organize the together.
at first it is preferable to eliminate from the case anything that is parasitic when reading the image by placing yourself judiciously.
I never use zooms, Than fixed lenses Which forces me to build my image in other words I learn to zoom with my feet.

From the Minorite Monastery in Český Krumlov,
Today known as Monastery of Ritters of Crusaders order with red star. The monks were seen here heading to lunch at a local restaurant.
How did monk parakeets who are native to South America end up in Connecticut? The story is that they were escapees from a Kennedy Airport shipment back in the 1960s. Others believe the birds could have been pets that have escaped! It is amazing that they have been able to survive here!!! This photo was taken in Stratford, CT!
