04 SEPTEMBER 2017 - BANGKOK, THAILAND: People pray after donating rice and cooking oil to Chaomae Thapthim Shrine. About 1,000 people came to the shrine for the annual food distribution. Staples, like rice and cooking oil, are donated to the shrine throughout the year and donated to poor people from the communities around the shrine. Food distributions like this are a tradition at Chinese shrines in Bangkok and a common way of making merit for the people who donate the staples. PHOTO BY JACK KURTZ
