At dawn each morning the monks from the monasteries in Luang Prabang, Laos come out onto the streets to seek food and alms from the residents of the town. When I took this photograph in 2002 it still seemed to be a quiet event, but on this last trip in 2007, it had become much more of a tourist event. This image was made with a Hasselblad X-pan camera.
