I did spend ten days at Shey Gompa, a famous monastery during a two month photo assignment to Inner-Dolpo, a remote region on the Tibetan border in Nepal. This lovely girl is the daughter of the local lama, and she joined in prayer. Because of the darkness I did use a Quantum Flask with large soft-box to illuminate the intimate scene.
