Flowering Tree, Walking Monk © 2003 Edward Nuñez

This image was taken in 2002 by photographer Edward Nuñez. Edward was on his way to observe the evening prayer ceremony at Tibet's Tashilhunpo's monastery when he found this narrow, ancient corridor occupied by a twisted yet gracefully flowering tree. A monk rounded the corner, briskly striding to an obvious obligation (perhaps the prayer ceremony). In this passing moment, this image was made. This photograph was a featured travel image on Nikon.com in May 2003.
