Buddhist Monk

On one chilly morning I came across him outside of the Khmer Buddhist Temple (London Ontario). He was happy to accommodate when I asked permission to photograph him. Originally from Cambodia he did very well with his broken English.

  4. Our winters must be a real shock to people from warm climes!
    The treatment the vets receive at Sunnybrook is fabulous!

  5. Funny how the western clothing for the cold fits perfectly by a buddhist monk. Great portrait ANDY.

  6. Even monks have to adapt to the weather and I like the way his colors go. Very fall.

  7. We have some of them here, though I do wonder where they tend to congregate, as you don't see them often.

  8. Excellent portrait of this monk wearing traditional robes. Perhaps he is a member of the Buddhist Yellow Hat sect?

  10. I'll bet he finds winters in Toronto quite different from Cambodia.

  15. Super portrait. Got to wonder what was going through his mind while he was posing for you. Maybe, "Are all Canadians this crazy?" Or, "Perhaps he's a candidate for monkdom?" Hey, you never know!
