03 JANUARY 2013 - BANGKOK, THAILAND: Phra Khanong canal near Wat Mahabut. Just a few minutes from downtown Bangkok, the neighborhoods around Wat Mahabut interlaced with canals, still resemble the Bangkok of 60 years ago. Wat Mahabut is a large temple off Sukhumvit Soi 77. The temple is the site of many shrines to Thai ghosts. Many fortune tellers also work on the temple's grounds. PHOTO BY JACK KURTZ
