A solemn moment in Samut Prakan as monks pray after receiving alms from a local family. The American seen on the left is a young backpacker who was caught up in the enthusiasm of people joining the monkhood late last year to make merit for the King's 80th birthday. Johan Folkinga, from Seattle, did a "half ordination" at Wat Chaimongkol while here on his gap year. His bare shoulders signify his status as a novice. He's now back in the US.
