Description

Just a photograph I had taken at the "Temple of the Emerald Buddha" here in Bangkok, Thailand. I was trying to come up with some fancy compositions and experiment with depth of field. It didn't work. Thank you very much for taking the time to look.

My mother in law wants her royalties for allowing you to photo her outside the temple!

Well, it's a cool pic anyway Moe, even if you didn't get the effect you were looking for. I like the lighting contrast in this.

You're in Bangkok? I had no idea! Well, it's a lovely evocative photo - well done. I've always loved the effects of sun on stone.

Wicked shot, Moe! I really got to get out your way one of these days. You could try cutting out the main lion and blur the backround. Just an idea. :0)

Great shot. These are really neat lions when you see them in their entirety. The thumb struck me more as a seriously deranged viking.

It's a good shot Moe! I agree with daeve on blurring the background (if you want).

All the white around it makes it almost look as if it is hovering, nice effect ;)

Ahh youve been on tour again. Traditional asian art is very fascinating indeed especially the temples. Much more fancyfull than the Gothic stuff here in the north lol, Inside of some Cathedrals you are bound to get depressions, its such s dark mood. One day, i swear , when i work for Spielberg or Lukas and have the money for a Trip ill fly to asia, for inspiration looooooool.

This is a great photo Moe. What I find interesting is the contrast between the old weathered appearance of the statues and the newness of the forms that they are resting upon. Also, the fact that the young cub being protected very nice and interesting. Such wonderful forms captured by your photographic eye.
