This photo was taken last year during the Chinese New Year period, where I stumbled upon a Buddhist monastery near where I live. As I further explored this place, I took notice of the elderly woman circling around this large display, quietly reciting her prayers with incense in hand. What drew me to this scene in particular is how shooting through the plastic cover (made to shelter the place) helped blur the detail and mesh the colours of the structure, in addition to further silhouetting the woman who already looks so small in the frame, emphasizing on the sense of lone serenity that intrigued me about this moment. To me, street photography has always been about having the sense to capture the scenes in the everyday that might've gone ignored, with this photo being amongst the first where I infused abstract elements in my work to draw on the emotional depth of the photo even more, on top of authenticity.
