This was shot in color and I liked it in b/w better. Thinking it would have been served better with some really snappy b/w presets. I only have the ones in Lightroom.

Are there young monks? Do you have to go to Monk School? Are monks happy with their career choice? I wonder about these things late at night.

Great image!

All the monks are adults. I've been to Chinese monasteries and they do have minors. It's very different in the West. There is Monk School . It's called ordinary life. 😊
American monks usually have careers like software programmers or doctors or plumbers. Monk hood is not a career path. The money stinks
