Dr. Nair, great capture of the culture in Laos! Colors and clarity of the image a spot on. Your cropping allows us to focus on these young boys and the moment. Well done! Posted: 03/10/2025 17:15:25

Nice, human interest image, clearly showing the faces of the woman and two of the monks. I think this tight crop on the 4 figures has helped create an image of human interest. Posted: 03/11/2025 15:26:29
Mohanan, amazing capture of the woman giving alms and the 3 young monks. The image is sharp, colorful, and well-cropped. A unique image in my part of the world and well-captured. Posted: 03/19/2025 10:39:31
