Morning Alms

Taken during my visit to Luang Prabang in Laos.

Had to get up early to catch this splended tradition

Ah, I saw the same in Luang Prabang many years ago but I was so disorientated in the morning after a night on the Beerlau and didn't get any snaps.

I love what you've done here... Selective colour is rarely my thing but I think it works well in this case.

Cheers. I know its a love hate thing selective colouring. Glad you like it

I don't like selective colouring when it's a gimmick. Here it (and the motion blur) works really well to create a very striking image. Great job

I don't usually like selective colour but it works here - (I mainly don't like it when it makes the skin of the subject grey when something else about them is in colour. With the colour being on the blurred figures I think that's why it looks ok to me)
