Location
The then Mu Pagoda , a monastery near Hue Vietnam . This is a teaching monastery for buddhist monks . This is the head monk .Time
It was mid afternoon and it was very hot and muggy .Lighting
The light was very bright and the surrounding trees made for dappled shadingEquipment
hand held Nixon d5200 , with 55-300 lens . no flash .Inspiration
the monk himself. He had such an infectious laugh in spite of the humidity was full of life . The language barrier seem to disappear altogether.Editing
no this was as it was taken .In my camera bag
the usual , spare batteries, filters ( uv ,polaroid ) lenses ( wide angle, portrait, zoom )Feedback
Just to be aware of what is around you . Sometimes a photo opportunity comes from nowhere very quickly .
