In this image, we see a monk immersed in prayer at the Dzogbegan Benedictine Abbey, located in the serene surroundings of Danyi Dzogbegan, Togo. The vibrant colors bring to life the rich cultural heritage and customs that are deeply rooted in this region. The photograph focuses on one man, his head bowed and hands clasped together as he engages in worship.
