Monks at the Royal Palace in Phnom Penh, Cambodia
Exploring Phnom Penh's magnificent Royal Palace at golden hour, I was struck by the serene scene of two monks walking calmly around the grounds, their distinctive orange robes perfectly complementing the yellow palace walls and hazy afternoon light. A moment of tranquility in what can be a very hectic city.
