Good just of this fascinating place. This could be on my itinary for my next trip, 5 days by train, bangkok to Chiang and back. Do you think it's worth the detour down the branch line, it's probably that at the expense of a night in Phitsanoulok, what do you think?

Nice angle to gain this great graphic shot. Fabulous colours and texture too.

Great colors and textures in this one, Chris, as well as an obviously well-used repetition with the various structures reaching towards the sky. Well framed as-is, but would work equally well imho with a more centered presentation, excluding the two pillars at the right. Nice work.

Beautiful photo, the contrast and the colours are superb, particularly the sky. I like the upward perspective and the composition. Well done!

Very nice statue and very well framed, Chirs. I like also those pillars nearby and the colors. Well seen!

The polarizing effect worked very nicely in this image Chris. The blue is just so nice to look at here. I like the point of vue and the lines of the structures that seem to take us right in this beutiful blue sky. Nice one.

Nice low angle to frame the statues by the blue sky. Good colot contrast.

Hi Chris,
The composition and the color are nice here. I am not sure whether this picture will be better if we can see more face of the statue.

that sky is extraordinary. it almost looks like you used a polarizer. fantistic composition of the statues, and great texture on the bricks.
