Nature retake land.

the hand of the time-tree,,,not particular any beauty,,,but now i have been looking 5 min,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

great shot. your perspective has given the viewer a good appreciation of this incredible scene

Impressive, both, the old ruins and the clearing works done as well as the respect payed for the large trees. Very good and important document. Compliments - El

Alec, amazing shot. It appears as if the giant tree is strangling the old temple in revenge.

Thanks Sircar, El. I have been to Angkor about 10 years ago . Will post more soon.......

 

You got to be there to see it yourself and be amazed at the ancient architecture and creeping trees.

What a awesome place!

where is it ?

Ta Prohm is one of the many temples in Angkor Wat, Siem Reap, Cambodia.

This is so beautiful and interesting .................. Thanks for sharing

This wonderful shot gives the viewer a sense of how ancient both the tree and the ruins are. Nicely done!

I'm sure I remember seeing some of these awhile back Alec...as I could not forget the roots of these magnificent trees.... (Perhaps someone else had a few shots similar)....nevertheless, this series is most impressive, intriguing; so well processed as are all of your shots.

 

My imagination is lost in the history of this place; the people; and filled with an 'awe' of such brilliant, yet ancient - architecture. So many of these destinations, still existing on our wonderful planet......yet there exists an 'intelligence' that we, in our 'superiority' will probably never truly understand. Wonderful work Alec. Thankyou for sharing.

Most sincerely, Gail

Wow! All I can think of right now is " I wish I could be there" wonderful shot Alec
