miscellaneous rambling

This is actually one of my favorite photos taken in Tibet, and to think that I'm in it! When you take photos, you generally accept the fact, that no one is going to get a good shot, with your camera. Especially when you have to explain what button to press, etc. etc.
So this shot was taken in the courtyard of Sakya monastery, when the professor was trying to convince the abbot to let us in to the locked room of ancient relics. As I said earlier though, it didn't work..
