Thai Statue Disapproving of Trash Photo

This is one of the many very charactful statues from Wat Pho (temple) in Bangkok. The unfortunate (fortunate for the photographer) juxtaposition between him and the trash bin was accidental and apparently unnoticed by anybody else. I almost wasn’t tall enough to get both him and the rubbish in the frame.

I have titled the picture “Disapproving” as this seems the most respectful way of interpreting his expression considering it is an historically important religious site but part of me does also wonder if he’s about to pick out the choicest morsels.
