THAI040205
June 12, 2004
Continuing with the Thailand theme this week, another image from my first sojourn to that nation. In fact, this was probably on the first day of adventure, after landing in the capital. Wandering through the main tourist areas, the Palace and Wat Po, This stupa struck me. These are small shrines (though sometimes not so small, you can see it towering over the roof tiles of the palace) where the remains of holy men are kept. They are intricately designed and decorated, and are beautiful to admire. I remember looking at this slide when it first came back from the lab, and immediately fell in love with it. The wide angle approach, the off-center view with the storm clouds in the background (storm clouds are never far away in Thailand in the summer). All of it spoke to me, I hope you enjoy it as well.
