As a close friend pointed out, my image of the joyous novice monks careening down a hill at their Bhutan monastic school is my "Energizer Bunny" photograph: it keeps going and going and going...
I can't say that I mind, though. As I've said many times before, this is my favourite photograph I've ever made.
So, when National Geographic contacted me seeking my permission to publish it again -- this time in The Best of National Geographic Yearbook 2013 -- I was ecstatic.
It took awhile to receive a copy of the book, but earlier this week a parcel arrived at my office from National Geographic in Washington, DC. Like a child at Christmas, I ripped open the box and quickly found my favourite young monks on pages 106/07.
This is the third time my photograph has appeared in a National Geographic publication, and it still remains my proudest ever accomplishment as a photographer. I'll be quite thrilled if it continues to go and go and go...
