Description
Wat Thai Temple, 8225 Coldwater Canyon, North Hollywood, Los Angeles, California. We are in the interior of the temple. Dozens of people are sitting on their knees, feet behind them. Almost all of the people are wearing white pants and shirts. To the right of the photograph is a baby of Thai origin, crawling towards the camera. She is wearing a flower on top of her head. Two women of Thai origin are sitting to her right. There is a man of Thai origin standing behind the two women. The interior of the temple is taken towards the back, and there are no objects of prayer or Buddhism visible, except for a very out of focus wall painting on the left side of the frame. 2pm
