All lined up

Rangjung Woesel Choeling Monastery, East Bhutan.

Rangjung Woesel Choeling Monastery, East Bhutan.

I had taken a shot of this group before, reflected in this same flooded courtyard. I'd even shown them the shot (to little reaction). But when I saw them coming along the wall, next to the water, I dashed like a madman to get the water between them and me. I guess you can see why. One of my favourite shots from the trip.
(About 50ft behind me, Mark Stennett was doing the same, but the extra distance gave him a cleaner shot: head-on, and all six of them evenly spaced. Ah well:-)
