Ladakh
Ladakh was taken in Ladakh, India, in a monastery tucked below the Himalayas. This kind man was showing us his prayer beads and wishing us well on our journey. His friendly smile and welcoming eyes were a true reflection of the cordial and receptive character this man evoked. This photograph serves as a reminder for myself regarding the power of a genuine smile, of a smile鈥檚 ability to break all language barriers and to stimulate positive emotions. A reminder to keep smiling." Student Arts Program official selection 2020. Located at the Student Recreation Center near room A146.听
