[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
A majestic bronze Buddha sits in the midst of a crematorium in Sha Tin, Hong Kong.

This crematorium is located on a hill. In Chinese beliefs, even those who had passed their time deserve a place with good feng shui. The better sites would be located on hills/mountains facing a water feature.

The Ten Thousand Buddha Temple is located on another side of the same hill as this Sha Tin crematorium.

Hi Lawrence

Nice shot, interesting composition which adds a bit of intrigue to the image. I like the warm colours also.

Well done :)
