Hi Renier,
I really like the b&w presentation of this wonderful artwork. the absence of color makes one concentrate on the intricate details of this lovely work. Excellent clarity and sharpness to this excellent image.

Hi Renier,
Interesting POV of the tower. You have captured all the detail very well.
It is hard to imagine the work entailed to produce something as ornate and beautiful as this.
TFS,
Pete.

I noticed in a trip to Kuala Lumpur years ago that the Hindu temples were very bright coloured Renier. A good POV here to get the detail of each of those figures. Good tones, another lovely conversion. TFS,
David

Hi Renier,
This temple certainly is suitable and effective in b&w medium. The diagonal framing is right-on and there is good sharpness. Greetings! Danilo

Classical peace of art.
