Extra Photos

In my last feed back from Paul I was given some advise which was to look at what the monks use The monk and the visitors use a number of different objects during the ceremonies. With my last visit to the temple it was empty the monks had gone out for the day so I focused on some objects that I fond in the temple.

fig 1

Figure 1 is part of the alter that is in the main room in the temple I wanted to photograph parts of the alter I like how the flowers change and how the candles are always lite. I find the colours in the photograph is quite warm which is what the rest of the room is like. I wanted this photo to show how relaxing the temple is without show any of the monks or visitor.

fig 2

Figure 2 is of water offering bowls were people can pore water in to, it is then offer it to the tree that is linked to the temple when water is placed in the bowl it becomes pure. I like how you can see the reflection in the vase like object  it does draw the attention of the eye.

 

Fig 3

Figure 3 is a pile of the monks robes that are offered to the monks with food and water. The photo does not look like it is of robes more like pieces of fabric wrapped up. The colours of the robes made me think about id the monks every ware any different colours other then reds or oranges and why.
