many lovely photos today, @slowwalker, inside the prayer room of Daw Woong Jean.

It's not unusual to have rough-hewn timbers which are often bent or slightly misshaped - the builders would simply cover the defects with paint and ornamentation.

The lotus and the dragons are not unexpected here, but provide a comforting atmosphere for the worshippers.

We are so used to modern building practices with the insistence on symmetrically machined beams and supports, but the ancients often made do with what was at hand.

In a way, the rough work of the structure allowed the artists to paint such colourful decorations which your photos skillfully display.

Good work, my friend.
