People Scrutinizing Phra Kruang

Shot at an Amulet Market in Bangkok, Thailand.

The narrow lane near the Grand Palace was crowded. Although it was located near the one of the major tourist attractions, most of the visitors were locals. The shops side by side were selling Buddhist objects. The two persons in this photo also came here to buy some articles.

A pile of amulets called Phra Kruang was on the wagon in front of them. And they were just scrutinizing one after another seriously. For me, the amulets looked the same. Yet there could be some important differences between them.
