Sketching Bayon, a photo from Siem Reab, West

Photographer's Note

Walking around the Bayon Temple at Angkor there were several people skecthing the many faces of this fascinating temple.
It was impressive to see the detail they could get into their drawings - almost better than a photograph!

Sketching? It looks more like a masterpiece than a sketch. Very nice capture, i like the yellow hue, more appropriate than a sepia would have been (I think that paper and yellow is a nice mix). Nice job!

Hi Maria. An artistic shot of someone pursuing art. I like the B&W quality here- there is a richness in tone and detail. Fine sketch too. I like this photo and the creativity behind it. Regards. Klaudio.

Hi Maria, what a beautiful B&W conversion. The details you've captured are amazing and the image is so sharp. It's like a painting of a drawing. Congratulations on an excellent choice of subject matter too. TFs, Lisa.

Hi Maria,

Didn't you just tell me today that you weren't too happy with your camera? Well...for me it doesn't look like you have any problems what so ever. This photo looks sharp to me - and I enjoy the view of the man skretching Bayon.

Artwork for sure!
