I visited a small village temple area where villagers were getting ready for a ceremony. As I looked into the temple I saw this man, the temple priest, and held my camera up to ask if I could take a picture. He nodded and held his hands together in a sign of welcome, as I fired off this single shot.
Edit - Photography is often a very personal thing for me, and the moments I experience when taking images often have more meaning for me than those who see the image. This is to be expected because I was there experiencing all the sights and sounds and smells and the moments either side of the one captured. It's a great feeling when other people also connect with an image that means so much to me. Thank you to everyone who takes the time to comment or "award".

Thanks for the kind words people (somehow managed to delete your comment Taffspride, but it is appreciated). It’s a nice surprise to be in the mix with some epic finalists.

You know, it really was. They don't often happen like that and thankfully it's in focus :-)
