The Temples of Angkor

[Michael13]

From 2006, my final visit to Cambodia.

Angkor Wat at sunrise. There were about 20 more photographers here making the same photo.

Another morning reflection

Love the lotus

The heads at The Bayon were my favorite.

Bantah Srey Temple

Angkor Thom

Very cool set of images and all well executed/processed. Hard to pick a favorite when they are all outstanding. I do like the lotus images and the silhouetted temple spires in the first image. Nice point of view with the Bayon heads image as well as the Angkor Thom image.

Wow, these are really so awesome! These are tour book, Nat Geo quality. Like Alan, not sure I can pick favorites, since they are all awesome.

Thanks Alan. I had heard from the guidebooks that the absolute best photo op was sunrise at Angkor Wat - turns out that has you shooting into the sun. It is the most attractive angle from a architectural point of view, but sunrise is certainly not the best time to capture it.

Thanks Jim. I'm still waiting for Nat Geo to call me. Been waiting almost 50 years now ...

Great set Michael. Like them all with the lotus image at the top of the list.
