[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Shot outside the Kurjey Lhakhang, in Bumthang. The mother and son were selling their ware when I captured this frame. It takes about 30 minutes of hike north to reach Kurjey Lhakhang. It was during 8th century a king from Bumthang, known as Sendhu Raja had invited Guru Rimpoche (Precious Master), who brought Buddhism into Bhutan, to cure him from a dreadful disease. Guru meditated at Kurjey for three months, left his body print on the rock and subdued the local deities including powerful Shelging Karpo, who had stolen the king's life force and was the cause of King's disease. Kurjey is complex of three temples, on the right beneath a giant cypress tree, the main temple built in 1652 by Minjur Tempa, Trongsa Penlop. This temple houses the cave where Guru Rimpoche had meditated and left his body imprint. The middle temple was built by the First King of Bhutan during his tenure as Trongsa Penlop in 1900. The third temple is recently constructed under patronage of Her Majesty queen mother Ashi Kesang Wangmo Wangchuk.

Hi Lopa,
I hadn't very active on TL last week, so, I missed this beautiful portrait! I like much the natural expression of this child! He seems very shy!
The ambient light supports this tender intimacy between the mother and the child with good efficience! Very Nice colors too! Bravo! Annie

What a wonderful to place to see! How lucky can you be?

Precioso momento el que has captado: momento de complicidad...complices...¿cuánto hace que no soy complice de alguien..?
Buen encuadre amiga.
Saludos, JL.
