This is my interpretation of the theme ‘Forward’ for the Weekly Photo Challenge @ The Daily Post
A shy young Cambodian monk preparing for the life ahead of him in the monastery. Of all the photos we took on this trip, this image is burned into my memory more than any other.

Lovely capture. The way the light highlights the colour of his robe seems to underscore all his chosen path stands for; and to add weight to his considerations.
Thank you and well said.
This is a beautiful picture!
