Prayer Flags Silhouetted Against Morning Mist in beside a rooftop prayer wall above the tree line near Kathmandu

Prayer Flags Silhouetted Against Morning Mist

by Leonard Snow

Early summer light washes over carved stone blocks on a monastery rooftop above the tree line near Kathmandu. Thick mist rests on the air, softening the edges of the architecture. Colorful prayer flags flutter against the pale dawn sky, their fabric appearing as dark silhouettes where the light hits them from behind. The stone wall rises vertically, its rough texture visible in the low angle of the sun. Below the eaves, the dense fog obscures the valley floor, leaving only the upper structure and the hanging banners in focus. One tassel hangs motionless near the corner, its frayed fibers catching the faint glow of the rising sun.
