I very rarely ask people to pose for me. I find it upsetting, and the attitude gets less natural. But I have always been fascinated in monks, and since I had arrived in Vietnam, I was obsessed with meeting up with one. It was when we got to the pagode of Bich Dong, Tam Coc, that I crossed his look ; his wisdom and inner content appeared through his eyes, so I had to give it a chance. He stopped and humbly stared at me with this altruistic pose, waiting for me to take the photo. Best poser ever !
