Lama at the Lotus Lantern Festival. Photo by: Wang Xuepeng. Silver Award.

The photograph has hardly any post-processing. It is smooth and deep and it's almost as if you can hear the sound of the bells and feel the lights. The lama is perfectly outlined by the light. Photography is not always obvious; more than often, it implicates. The lama at the Lotus Lantern Festival and its implications are so relaxing and fascinating.
