Very nice processing Peter,

I like your first one, nice colours, use of DOF.

From your collection at smugmug, I really like the treatment you did with the "Meditating Buddha", that would be my pick of the bunch.

Cheers,

André

Sharp as a tack! And the gold looks like gold. A little iconic collection. A good demonstration of your attention to technical details.

First thing that comes to mind, hammer and chisel.

Love the photo's colourful and well saturated and sharp!

André, Matt, Michael - thanks for your comments. These just belonged together somehow.

André - interesting you should mention that image. It was here to start with then I changed my mind and removed it since I thought it may be a little over done PP wise. Next time I'll trust my judgement. I've added it back :wink:

Peter I really liked what you did with the last photo. The First photo is very simple but works a treat.

Some really nice shots Peter, well done!

The last one is something special reminds me of Tomb Raider.

I particularly like the 2 last images. I've tried to photograph gold statues before in Thailand and they tend to look rubbish. You have done a great job here Monsieur Stubbsy!!
