Au nord de l’île de Samui ont peu voir le Big Bouddha, une statue dorée de Bouddha haute de 12 mètres assise au sommet d'un escalier décoré de dragons vert. Comme le veut la tradition Thaï, il faut enlever ses chaussures avant de gravir l'escalier et montez jeter un coup d'œil de plus près à la statue et admirer la belle Baie de Bophut.

Hello Urs,

Amazing rich tones to this photo. I like your composition - stunning contrast against the blue sky BG. Very sharp and attractive image. TFS.

Salut Urs,

What a splendid and sharp shot! The golden color of the statue of Mahatma Buddha stands well against the blue sky...wonderful contrast. The framing and the way of presenting the picture are simply perfect. Wonderfully chosen POV and DOF.

Thanks for sharing.

An amazing crop of the statue adorned with glorious lighting!
Very pleasant gold tones with good shades and shadows!
Nice blue sky patched with soft clouds.
A very artistic composition. I like the inclusion of the base of the statue!
Full points for the perfect crop and presentation in an adequate frame.
Great job, my friend!

Une belle image paisible avec un POV original, et un superbe contraste entre les couleurs. Les nuages donnent l'impression d'un souffle qui vient caresser la main. Bien vu !

salut urs

elle est magnifique cette mai de bouddha, la couleur or resplendit au soleil et ressort bien contrece ciel bien bleu
belle luminosté due au soleil
belle composition, j'ai l'mpression que cette statue vit et respire (non je n'ai rien prit)
merci de ce beau partage

Hello, Urs -
Fantastic image - great idea to concentrate on the hand rather than trying the include the entire statue. The golden tones are beautiful against the deep blue sky background. The details are very sharp and the lighting is perfect. Well done.

Hi Urs,

Beautiful colors and details.
Good illumination and sharpness.
Well framed and done.

Um abraço,
Paulo.

Hi Urs,
Well seen, the view is beautiful, great colours and a good composition. The lighting is well done,
Georg

Bonjour Urs

Quel contraste et quelle lumière !!
On s'y croirait une belle photo bien cadrée et des plus agréables à regarder (comme dab!!!)

PS : là je vais me venger il a les pieds plats ton bouddha ... de longs et fins doigts de main certes très jolis ..... mais des pieds plats.
J'arrête mes con..... merci de nous montrer ces endroits merveilleux

Bonsoir Urs,

c'est simple mais le résultat est superbe. Superbe la netteté, les couleurs. J'aime beaucoup.

Très bonne fin de soirée,

Stasa

Hi Urs,
What a wonderful idea to capture details of the statue instead of capturing the whole. You have created a wonderful composition with very nice details and great clarity. I love the contrast between the gold and the blue sky. If I have to nit pick, its the little wire at the top of the photo next to the arm. Its for sure not making the photo less beautiful, but it doesn't add to the photo.
TFS,
Niek

nice framing, and the exposure is great, the result is a nice BG and well lighted subject, i hope to go to thailand some time, right now im staying here i singapore, on friday ill be going to malasia with my wife, congrats again

Bonjour Urs,

les contrastes de couleurs sont saisissants sur cette composition d'un excellent piqué.
Du joli travail.

Hello Urs,
This would have been appropriate for a previous theme on hands. The isolated Buddha's hand look gorgeous against the intensely blue sky. The colors are delightful. Well composed. Best regards...
