A friend forwarded this link.

I was so impressed with the photo and even wanted to go to this place.
Until I read on the comments.

I'm not judging as I'm not a judge. ;)

can't see the comments, perhaps it got blocked? anyway, i can suspect what its abt, if i may speculate, this may be a posed shot. i recall a similar pic that had monks walking across, only to be told that they were paid to walk to and fro to get that attention-grabbing pic haha... if this wasn't a staged scene, my hats off to the photographer.

i have to add, its a beautiful shot nonetheless, but if it was a staged shot, the photographer shd at least make mention of it.

I think they have deleted/blocked the previous comments just now.

Here is another link about the issue.

Its a brilliant shot even though its a staged shot. As long as he didn't go against the regulation, there's no harm of doing that. I think not only this guy did that, there could be so many of them especially those well compose shots.
