man standing on staircase

I was walking down the street where I live. I had my 1969 Canon SLR with me. There was a significant temple ceremony in one of the bigger temples in my village. I stopped in front of the outer Balinese split gate to watch the procession. I stayed longer and clicked this photo of an elderly Balinese man. The smoke in the background that gives off a surreal effect is from the burning of offerings. This experience and capture make me appreciate taking things slow and easy. To meditate on the present moment.
