It was dragged up by 2 men with a hand trolley. :D :D :D
Excellent image. It would make a great subject for light painting at night with a spotlight.....Gerry?

That's a nice shot, would you mind sharing the original in color? :)

The original in colour. I found the reds and other bright colours distracting from the serene and majestic Buddah, who seems to look down on the insignificant problems of the diminutive humans. I found the experience humbling.

I prefer the black and white versions of these two details of the same Buddah.

I think B&W was the correct choice.

Agree with the b&w.

My friend went there last year and they were playing Christmas Carols :rotfl2: Multiculturalism at its finest :rotfl2:

Note that it's freaking massive so getting up on the statue could be problematic :)
