THAI MONK SERIES GALLERY
One quiet afternoon in the mid-peninsula Thai city of Ranong, near the Burmese border, I ventured into
a small, nondescript temple just off the main road and was struck by these amazingly life-like busts
of deceased monks smiling, peaceful with a certain tongue-in-cheek benevolence from beyond
the grave. Perhaps it was all that perpetual gold-leafing. Maybe you can take it with you.
