Brief

Compassion is one of the Dalai Lama’s favourite words, and Seattle-based photographer Phil Borges has aptly swiped it for his collection of photos launched by Tony Stone Images. It’s called Tibetan Portrait: The Power of Compassion, and includes a commentary by His Holiness. The sepia-toned portraits from various Tibetan communities, both living in exile and remaining in Tibet, is an insight into this threatened culture. The book costs 18.95 and is published by Rizzoli International.
