All comments welcome folks - thanks.

I like the picture, though I think it would be nicer in colour? Did you shoot in colour? I remember this area and I think that the monks robes are really strong orange colours. Nice pose. I soo want to go back here!

Great shot, I was here only last week! If you have been here then this picture means a lot to you. Nice capture. Did they try and practice their English on you?

ok, obviously this picture has caused a little controversy. This is my take on it. I'm a graphic designer by trade, and I can quite easily create ANYTHING I want to by using photoshop, illustrator and 3d studio max. Though I came to this website to learn photography & we all know there is a big difference photography and digital art - for example there is no proof that a single photo has been taken here (no offence Luciano-haha) I thought about the whole divide between digital and traditional and I decided to look up the word 'photograph' the oxford dictionary stated :'pho·tog·ra·phy

n. The art or process of producing images of objects on photosensitive surfaces.

The art, practice, or occupation of taking and printing photographs'

 

So, taking a picture digitally or with standard is still recording onto 'photosensitive surfaces' (A CCD in a digital camera or onto film). The question remains is this picture a 'photograph' or a piece of 'digital art'? I think the latter. You cannot either really call it a 'manipulated image' as we see nothing of an original picture. Luciano, I love this picture! It is unique, very individual, and you have a talent (without doubt). Though, this is a site for photographers; its good to see you got some 'photography' in that folder too.
