Only a few minutes before I made the preceding photograph, I photographed a pair of women watching the never-ending march of the prayer-wheel spinners through the Jokhang Temple. I used a slower shutter speed for this shot, about 1/15th of a second, to blur the wheels, a pilgrim passing through the frame, and the hand of one of the watching women. The purpose of this blur is to increase the tempo of the picture, making things feel as if they are spinning, moving, and even watching ever more quickly.
