This young novice monk completes his daily chores before he has time to play. Like so many young monks the work time was often mixed with a bit of mischievous play. I was amused by their creativity in making the chores fun. This photo offered a bit of a juxtaposition... the warm tones of gorgeous woodwork and the harsh metal vacuum cleaner... an old and new contrast.
