Monoku-Pai-Doung-A-Day

one who stands in the sun-
                                      leaves a shadow all will see

This is not only a penetrating comment that is fitting ethnography ... but wow, is not that picture something ... a primitive landscape with a portrait of complex traditionality juxtaposed with the intuitive modernity ... awesome shadow, my friend. Thanks for the privielege of reading and sharing your joy, friends spend time with friends sometimes.
