Took these just a few days before Christmas with my new Sigma 10-20, there is NO other lens that would get me that level of width and perspective. Maybe not the best shots ever, but it was simply too cold to play more....
One quick note about processing. Both of these necessitated some serious processing. About 2 hours worth. I took 6 exposures of each, 3 for the statues in the foreground and 3 for the temple all from the same spot, just different shutter speeds. I then did HDR/Tone Mapping for the sets of 3 for the front and 3 for the background, then brought in the foreground on top of the background and masked/trimmed the edges of the statues. A LOT of work!!!! But I like what it looks like!

These images are beautiful. Well worth the time and effort!!
Thank you Karen! I had fun processing them. It was a little cold taking them though! Appreciate you taking time to look!
