Located within the enormous Angkor Thom complex, this enigmatic statue presents one of Angkor's many mysteries.
It may depict one of the two Khmer kings who according to legend suffered from leprosy, or Yama, their god of Death, or.... Modern buddhists drape the nude form and burn incense in respect.
MartinC, Xcalibre, Doylem--Nice work!
I really like this IR picture...would you like to share with us your workflow?
I just bough a used lens and an IR Hoya 72R came with it but can't seem to get picture like yours.
Thanks
Thank you very much for your kind words; they mean a lot.
Here's another one. It's a bit different from what I usually post:
My fav drink of All Time
That does look tasty, what is it... and where'd you get it?!
You've shot this at the best time of day... while there's still some light in the sky to contrast or harmonise with the floodlighting. It works well... but, wow, that is one crap piece of public sculpture.
Moving up the Columbia at dawn..
I took an early morning stroll along the banks of the Columbia River in Vancouver, WA with my little old point and shoot.

The Edale valley, Derbyshire, UK: not a 'real' panorama, just a crop from a wide-agle shot...
Absolutely gorgeous. You captured the feeling in that shot.
Doylem, I love your shots, but have two complaints. One is your frequent use of a remote-controlled swan and the other is that you have a never-ending supply of special clouds. No fair
Lol @ Carlgo
And Otter, that was an AMAZING shot. I just loved the symmetry of all those statues...
Another picture from Wreck Beach.

Thanks (and to SolracSelbor too...).
A mate of mine recently said my landscapes were 'still lives', and there's probably an element that suggests 'time stood still'. I try to lock all the elements of a pic together, at the moment I press the shutter... which is why I keep the compositions simple.
I do spent a ridiculous amount of time on the details, which no-one else might notice. Swans have to look their best; sheep have to be facing the right way. Even the right sort of expression on a sheep's face.
As for the clouds and the light. Well, in the UK we don't have too many extremes. We don't have the biggest, or smallest, or highest or broadest... but we do have a big variety in the weather. So a breezy day with broken cloud cover will offer hundreds of different picture-taking options in the space of a few hours. Big blue skies don't do much for me; the light is too 'scattered'. So the weather forecast I wait for is 'changeable'...
