Morning Alms

A Buddhist monk begs for morning alms at downtown Sukhothai, Thailand.



Photographed with a Voigtlander Bessa L + 25mm Skopar lens / Era 100 film shot at E. I. 200.

Nothing very technical about this shot, except for the Bessa L's not having a rangefinder thus the need to scale focus. Otherwise it's be there at the right time - that's 7AM when the monks make their morning rounds.

I didn't shoot at E. I. 200 on purpose - I mistakenly left the ISO dial at 200 so I had to push-process accordingly afterwards. turned out ok :P
