Description


Le palais Potala est gigantesque, plusieurs étages et un vrai labyrinthe. Mais les pièces sont petites, sombres, avec des couloirs et et passages étroits, escaliers raides et glissants, interminable. J´ai vu des chinoises, dans le meuilleur style nouveau riche, le faire en robe étroite et haut talons ! Á l´intérieur c´est trés étoufant, claustrophobe, au moins jusqu´à arriver à la terrace sur le toît. Il n´a pas d´air pour respirer et des dizaines, peut être des centaines d´autels avec du beurre d´yak qui brûle comme des bougies. On les trouve partout au Tibet. Même la tsampa, la nourriture locale est fait avec du beurre d´yak. Partout flotte l´oedeur de beurre d´yak. A chaque fois que pense au Tibet, je sens l´odeur de beurre d´yak... The Potala Palace is giant, many levels and a true labyrinth. But the rooms small, dark, with narrow corridors and pass, staircases stiff and slipping, endless. I see Chinese woman, new rich style, visit with tigh dress and shoes with hight heels! The interior is oppressive, claustrophobic, at least to arrive at the terrace on roof. No air to breath and dozens, maybe hundreds of chantrys which burns vases with yak butter like candles. We finds them everywhere in Tibet. Even the tsampa, the ocal food is made with yak butter. Everywhere float the butter yak smell. Everywhere I remember Tibet, I fell the yak butter smell…

Keep the home fires burning. Excellent POV, DOF, clarity and lighting effects in this shot of the long myriad of candles. Who keeps these candles up and lit all the time? Tedious.
