His was an
extremely interesting face. One that has held up beautifully
through the years. The most extraordinary thing about this
portrait is how it was done. Usually my tool for getting people
to relax and respond to the camera is talk to them. I just keep
talking. But the Living Buddha, who was here in Berkeley to help
produce a Tibetan-English dictionary, didn't speak English. I
didn't speak Tibetan, and there was no third party. He arrived
for the sitting in his native attire, and he carried a staff.
Since there wasn't any translator, we just smiled at each other.
