, 1/500 f/5.6, ISO 160, hand held. Sattahip, Thailand.

Il motto benedettino del “Prega e Lavora” si può prestare anche alla vita dei monaci buddhisti che tra i vari compiti previsti dalla loro dottrina religiosa hanno anche quello di tenersi occupati con varie mansioni, tra cui tenere pulito il tempio e tutta l'area attorno. La ragione è del tutto simile a quella che adottarono i monaci benedettini che, durante la loro giornata, non dovevano avere mai momenti di ozio perché stare senza far niente era considerato la causa di tutti i vizi dell'uomo. #Tempio che sembra di #Vetro #Monaco #Arancione #Buddhism #BuddhistTemple #MonaciBuddhisti #LifeInThailand #ThaiPeople #Mosaico

Beautiful image that well represents the interesting caption that accompanies it ... A temple with wonderful workmanship.
I notice how even the monk's flip-flops have the same color as the snakes on the sides ... Does emerald green have a special meaning?
Good day, Luciana.

In Thailand the colors have a precise meaning and are combined with a day of the week. For example, the current King was born on a Monday and all the flags and official coats of arms attributable to him are yellow, which is the color of Monday. In this case I'm not sure, but green could be the color of the day of the inauguration of the temple or the birth of the founding monk (green, Wednesday).
This thing is curious because each of us going on the internet can easily find out what is his reference color (according to Thai culture of course).
Thank you very much Luciana for the nice comment and the request for further information.
Good day to you
Fabio

Thank you for the very kind response and for the time you dedicated to me ... and then, I'm really curious, I'll follow your indication to find my reference color :-)

Composition, cut and symmetry combined with a beautiful light make it a great shot, congratulations, hello.

A beautiful symmetrical composition composed with great attention to detail: the monk, the most important figure, slightly off-centered, the sharp copperboard and the turquoise green sandals that give a note of significant color because (will it be a coincidence?) they are just the same shade as the final part of the snake's tail on the balustrade of the stairs.
Excellent low PDR and the cut of the temple almost as a precious frame of the scene represented, which must rightly be the most pregnant moment of the photographic story.
Congratulations Fabio!
I love it.
PS
thanks for the clarification on the costume of the Thai girl, now I will change the title.
Have a nice day!
Elizabeth :-)

I
don't think it's a coincidence, I try to sketch an explanation some comments above... :-)
Rich and articulate comment yours, thank you very much Elizabeth.

:-) Keep only purple for good, by convention black is no longer considered in that list there... think that in central Thailand there is a town with all the houses with purple outer walls because it is the city where one of the houses of one of the sisters of the current King is located, who like you was also born on Saturday ... and to pay homage to it, many houses the owners have painted purple ... visiting that historic center is very impressive... ;-)

Interesting research and discover that green is my reference color on the day of birth, Wednesday ... who knows, maybe there is really a link, because green is one of my favorite colors :-)
Thanks Fabio.
Good evening, Luciana.

It can be... They believe in it enough (now a little less than a decade ago when I arrived here), for example at the parties of, chessò, retirement of a person is indicated (sometimes, not everyone cares) to wear something of his color of reference ... It has happened to me often and my personal wardrobe is also adapted to this: I have a light blue shirt, a rose, a red shirt, not necessarily solid, etc ... I must say it's also fun beyond everything... ;-) August 12, for example, is the birthday of the Queen Mother and if you walk the streets you find many people wearing something heavenly in her honor... ;-)
