A special post by photographer and Tibetan Nuns Project supporter, Brian Harris.
My wife Paula and I spent five weeks photographing at four Tibetan Nuns Project nunneries in India in April 2013.
It was an experience full of beauty I will never forget. What I recall most vividly are the lovely songs of the many birds in the morning accompanied by the soft murmuring sounds of the nuns reciting prayers and scriptures. (You can listen to exactly what Brian is writing about by clicking his audio recording of the bird song and prayers at http://tmblr.co/ZeUSItheHrQj)
