Phra Buddhasaiyas, a photo from Bangkok, Central

Photographer's Note

Phra Buddhasaiyas is reclining buddha in Pali language.In my opinion,the reclining buddha of Wat Pho is most beautiful reclining buddha statue in Thailand.

This picture took in a B&W film(Kodak pro BW400CN)and scanned with Canon 8800F.

I used post process in cs2.Because of quality of Film and camera lenses that i just add a little bit of level and contrast to finish this picture.

Patshoo-

Wonderful contrast and exposure.

I believe the out of focus toes (?) are just too distracting for this shot.

I like the rest of the shot though.

Hello Patshoo
I've seen the massive reclining Buddha, not an easy subject to photograph. I think this is the first time I'm seeing a B&W version & it's excellently done. The tones are great..love the light as it falls on His serene face. I do agree about the OOF toes being a bit of a distraction. I guess cropping off the right a bit can be a viable option. But this is a fine work Patshoo!
