The Story Behind the Shot: In 2005, I was wandering the Bangkok Night Market. Night hawkers were selling everything from street food to underage sex. I turned my head away from the Neon glitter and saw the Buddha's with their backs to the market. It seemed like the natural attitude for the spiritual symbols that these statues represent.
