chinatown caligrapher
This coming weekend will mark the new lunar new year. The coming year is the Year of the Boar. Others call it the Year of the Pig. I took this picture of the caligrapher in Bangkok's Chinatown more than 2 weeks ago in preparation for the Lunar New Year. The Bangkok Post has started their coverage of the Lunar New Year. Must have been a slow news day. They even features the same caligrapher on their front page photograph. I took his photo while he was doing his work. When he saw my flash he just turned to me and smiled.

Lord Shiva
This is one of the bas releif carvings inside the sanctuary. What attracted me to is was the lighting that seemed to illuminate the main statue. This was one of the images of Lord Shiva. There was another one across from this image. According to the guide, Lord Shiva is responsible for all the good as well as the bad things in this world.
