Sacred Skin #04. The Master Achan Thoy (Back).
“A man came to photograph me. The first time he tried, no images appeared on the film. The second time, the camera broke. Before he tried again, I made him pay his respect to the hermit. Everything worked.”
From the book Sacred Skin - Thailand’s Spirit Tattoos by Aroon Thaewchatturat (photography) and Tom Vater (text)
