Monks Ferry at high water. Slight storm surge on the 9.4 metre tide we had but nothing to write home about!
Every morning the monks wake up before dawn and march through Luang Prabang collecting handfulls of rice from generous strangers. It's a beautiful thing to watch, although it's been exploited by tourists over the past several years since my first visit to Luang Prabang in 2005. There are signs posted all over the town to leave the monks alone and respect the ritual. As we woke up at dawn to watch this beautiful practice, we saw evidence of many tourists who were practically harassing these young boys. Before they were eager to smile and wave at me, this time when any passed me by, they hid their faces. I took very few photos of them during this trip as I wanted to be respectful and not be seen as an ugly tourist. For these shots I sat in one place on the ground, used no flash, and tried to capture most of these shots from afar.

Some pretty good musician to musician advice. The last line is wonderful, and far ahead of his time.
Buddhist monks recently gained a lot of media coverage, first in Burma, now in Tibet and India. When I was traveling in Thailand and Cambodia, I realized how well they were integrated into the society, as I was the one who stands out in the crowd by giving a longer look, and sometimes snapping a shot. Their orange robes just never failed to catch my immediate attention. Under that peaceful look, many of them have a young men's heart with much curiosity to the outside world. My coversations with them (in English) were as much asking as answering. (Y:) Where did you learn English? (Y:) How long have you been living in a temple? (M:) Which country do you come from? (M:) Have you been to Toronto? (M:) Do you like Angkor? ...... These are the questions with answers. ...... However, I may never find out what it feels like to live as one of them.
traditional religions still hold sway in this ancient land, and many boys continue to attend monasteries as part of their education.
