Photographer's Note
Oh dear! Oh dear! What’s a young monk to do, with so many delectable young ladies to distract him? He has decided on the right path. He has turned away and set his mind on higher things, maybe.

Hi Kevin -
A great shot with a bit of humorous subtext - nice and colorful shot, and an effective crop.
Cheers,

Brilliantly observed, Kevin, I know you put your finger on something here. Well seen and rendered, my friend.
Once again I think the colors are a little strong, but maybe that's how you see them, and it is your right, of course...
All the best,
Francis

I like yor photos alot, this one is psychcologically interesting as the idea of denial occurs in all our lives, even more so when we have made the decision for our selves to take a different path. Yet they seem oblivious of one another as they are lost in there own thoughts,emotions and worries. yet so often we pretend to ignore and not be interested in something which in a way makes us want to look even more. its symbolic that his body is turned away from the camera and girls like his rejection of earthly vanities. thanks for sharing.

Well titled, showing the true meaning of temptation right there! :) It seems some of the ladies are too tired to even be noticed by him, whereas others are engaged in some deep conversation. I agree with Furachan that the colors seem a bit overdone (as least how it appears on my monitor), but nicely seen nonetheless.

Hi Kevin, This is a fine street shot and a very funny story. I particularly like the 4 girls who are sound asleep. I have to agree though that the colous seem a bit unnatural. (I've noticed this on some of your other shots too.) Anyway, a very entertaining photo!

Suddenly...being a celebatic monk is not a good idea at all, in the presence of these pretty young ladies. But then again, resistance is an acquired taste. Do you know, when you resist something, that something gets more enticing, interesting and becoming necessary all of a sudden.
Maybe it is just me, but I see loneliness in the monk. A lot more than anything else heavenly earth.
