Bangkok Train Station —
"This is my favorite photograph that I have ever taken," he says. "I went to the station early in the morning. I waited until the sun was lower, cast an interesting ray of lights and then my eyes opened. I had the framing ready, and the second that the monk walked in the right spot and his eyes looked at the train, I clicked the shutter."
