Buddha!

2009.09.21
The sun was behind this giant building when I took this photo, so I had to mess with it a bit so you could actually see it. The colors are little off, but hey, whatever works.

I just realized this photograph looks just like the photograph of a statue I posted a few entries back... I guess I like the composition? Ha.

This flower was lying perfectly in one of the statue's hands. I thought it looked purty.

A little trinket someone left for Buddha.

This is the bottom of a (HUGE) reclining Buddha's feet. To pay respect to him, people have stuck coins onto him using gold leaf.

This place was beautiful. I felt like I standing on top of history. There were dozens and dozens of Buddha statues, most were very old.

(ps. Check out the past 2 entries--I decided to break these pictures up into several posts).

Widcat It's nice the way people pay their respects. I've seen that before with other statues.
