For June 2020, 2 photos shared the first place for photo of the month, as voted by BME members. This is the second of the 2 photos, by TC Lin.
Some words from TC about the photo:
''I was recently at the Dizang Temple in Xinzhuang, Taiwan; it was a busy day with crowds of worshippers, and as I observed a group of people chanting near the altar, a woman brushed by me. I noticed that she was not only holding both a baby and a handful of incense, her arms were also heavily tattooed. The sight struck me as mothers come in all shapes, sizes and colors, and the figures etched on her skin seemed to be surrounding the child with her mission of protection.''
