[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Malaysia has some good limestoe deposits around Ipoh. It is likely the source of material for this finely carved and polished Buddha.

The Buddha Statue is a symbol of Buddhism's ancient founder, Siddhartha Gautama, a prince from northern India. He lived from about 563 to 483 BC. Buddhism originated as a form of atheism. They abandoned the idea of a personal God (Ishvara) who controlled the eternal fate of souls. Gautama denied the ancient theistic beliefs, because he found it challenging to bring together the idea of suffering and evil with the existence of a righteous God.

Hello Murray.
Beautiful Buddha. Very well pictured.
Not that easy as it looks like to photograph it.
I do have one Merlion from Singapore, Took many shot of it, none certified me.

Hello Murray,
A fine piece of art!
Well exposed capture letting the audience see the fine details in the statue...
Tight cropoping works well, attractive symmetrical composition!
Greetings,
