People in Shwedagon Pagoda, Myanmar

Posted on September 24, 2012 Posted By: Amardeep Singh Categories: Blog, Travel

At Shwedagon Pagoda in Yangon, the capital of Myanmar, one will find hundreds of monks in scarlet robes.

Myriad monks, scattered all around the premises do create a challenge to isolate subjects for visual photographic appeal. As I walked around patiently, my eyes searched for patches of natural light. At a distance from these spots, I waited patiently for subjects to pass through them to create these contrasted and colorful pictures.

    The effect of light on the scarlet robes and serene faces is dramatic. The elegance of the old man with the teacup in black and white is timeless.
