@MARIANA: there are two people behind that flag and I'm glad someone finally noticed it! that's our monk guide and the other one is our driver. *you need not be sorry about speaking your opinions to me, I give my opinions to you mercilessly as well :))

Wow. interesting. Is this the counterpart of our traditional rosario? Or is it used for something else? Really interesting stuff where you've been to shoti.

@Fred: hmm I don't think so. this one, I think, is their equivalent of catholics' rosary. thanks Fred, glad to know you liked em:)

The transparence of this shot and the colours are great ! But what is it ?

@Marieastro: Hi Marie, it's a prayer flag. you'll see it in places where Tibetans dwell, though I'm not quite sure about the purpose of it. thanks for visiting :)
