Wednesday is a special day!
According to Thai belief having
your hair cut on a Wednesday means asking for trouble.
Yet Wednesday stands out, being the only day to be divided into morning
and evening, each with their own Buddha image. Wednesday morning Lord
Buddha is standing with both hands holding an alms bowl. Wednesday evening
Lord Buddha is receiving gifts of a honeycomb from a monkey and water
from an elephant.
However, why Wednesday? From this
simple question, "Wednesday" becomes an art project.
Please take a photo on Wednesday and send it to me. Comparing people's
Wednesday's activities, I would like to search a visual proof of its
specificness.
Thank you for participating in the project and see you on Wednesday!
* Entry has closed. 541 photos have been collected during two month
