Moments before packing my cameras up and leaving for home, I saw these Cambodian monks heading home as well. It made an appropriate farewell image for my fifth visit to Southeast Asia. There are layers of rhythms and patterns in this image that not only carry the eye from side to side, but draw it back into the image as well. A row of posts fill the foreground, the monks occupy the middleground, and a metal fence imprinted with horizontal bars creates a rhythmic background. I like the way the umbrella at left breaks the frame, and extends the sweep of this image beyond its boundaries.
