I took the same picture in Feb, 2009: same monk with the same off-the-shoulder robe, bell, wooden club, and bare-foot squat. Only I got closer to his face with a zoom; also, I caught the club a earlier on the down-swing. Frankly, it's good to see the guy back on the job. In your last photo from your last visit to the monastery, our guy had been replaced. Another guy was ringing his bell.
Traveling to the far corners of the world to tell compelling picture stories, award-winning humanitarian photojournalist Karl Grobl reveals the human side of issues faced by people across the globe. His images highlight those basic human elements that comprise the fabric binding all cultures together in our rapidly homogenizing, yet sometimes divided, global community.
Peering well beyond the surface of unfolding stories, Karl's photographs reveal the heart, and sometimes, heart-wrenching truth. His images offer viewers intimate glimpses into the lives of ordinary people all over the world and provide an opportunity for us to reflect upon, and understand their personal struggles and triumphs.
