Nice shot well composed , I love the angle

A very original composition. well done. cheers, Hans

The depth and sixe perception is so well captured, Rob. Awesome work. 7/7. Very well done, my friend. Regards, Lawrence.

Thank you very much for your kind words guys.

This picture took quite a lot of processing work because of light conditions that were nearly impossible for 'regular' photography. The difference in light between the fingers and the head was something like 6 f-stops, and there were variations of light and shadow all over the place.

I had to work this image using Photomatics Pro 3. Without HDR, I wouldn't have had any image to display. Even after processing, the sky is still completely burnt out.

I just hope I've done this magnificent temple faint justice.

 

Cheers

You did a great job on the light Rob. It is obviously a difficult exposure to make. The angle and composition really make this a great image.

Rob that is such a great view ot it, the composition is very very nice and original. I trully like what you've done here.

Congrats,

Alex

Under such difficlult lighting condition, your did a very good processing work. I also like your angle to enhance the 'gigantic' feel of the Budhha.

Hi Rob,

 

Great work, interesting angle and nice contrast on the fingers and the gold leaf covered nails.

I photographed the same temple on slides in 1992 - way before digital processing was possible- so I know the troubles you faced. I never got a good shot which included the face and sky. However I have one showing the beautiful hand. I can see the temple has been restored since I was there.
