2014 National Geographic Photo Contest, Week 3

“The Crystal Son”. An initiate is checking his make up that his mother is applying to her sun during Poi Sang Long (festival of the Crystal Sons) in Mae Hong Son, Northern Thailand. This colourful festival is held every April in Northern Thailand. 7 to 14 year old Shan boys get ordained to make merit. Some will stay only for a week, for some it means a life long commitment to the Buddhist monastic life. Photo location: Wat Don Chedi, Mae Hong Son, Thailand.
