Iconic iphone-Monk makes the common people look so out and behind :)

Michel Verhoef replied:

Yeahhh...they have the wisdom...that's why they're monks I suppose :)

Some of the high class Monks can speak foreign languages, some of them are experts of the history, no surprise at all. Ironically we think we know more than them :-x

Michel Verhoef replied:

Thanks Fei...yes they are quite special, in many ways :)

fantastic capture. Here in Thailand they are the same. Monks have Iphones, tablets and laptops. In the evening they chat with others on fb. Times change

Omar Hafidi

Omar Hafidi

with the same usual brilliance, you capture some moments of tremendous cross-cultural significance........there is enormous socio-political amplitude in your photography Michel...you definitely should consider entering the Pulitzer....

Michel Verhoef replied:

Ha...isn't that not just for books...thanks for your kind comments and suggestion :) Omar
