Hi Chris,
Excelent picture to this Bas Relif that is a beautiful piece of art. A artwork in another artwork so well captured and framed. It's really it seems a Sepia tone but is natural color. Very well seen, symmetrical and well done.

Congratulations and have a nice day.

Hi Chris,
Good capture of these nice architectural elements, I like this difference of rendering that makes the dark one look way more ancient than the foreground one.
Have a nice sunday,

Hi Chris, beautiful!. The first time I saw en embossed picture It reminded me of the carving in the temples. The work is superb, and you have displayed it well. Good vertical layers, nice depth.

Ankor looks to me as a magic place, and this "relief" is a contribution to this idea.
well photographied to offeer the upper leaves to the "dancers" And also a nice view to the darker sculpture.
beautiful

Effectful detail from this very famous place chris. And as you say a good balance between the two sets of figures in the wall. Well seen

Hi Chris, I have almost the same shot so I know exactly where you were standing.You have captured the symmetry well with good contrast. This is also is scan, yes? The apsaras continue to be amazing. So graceful

Hi Chris;

Nice capture of the Bas Reliefs. I like the way you managed to capture the relief in the distance as well, and two tone helps to differentiate them well.

Nicely done!

Nice detail you found here, Chris, of Cambodia's iconic tourist attraction. In addition to the details of the artwork as such, the contrast and the very subtle hints of color are very enjoyable in this one.

Wonderful shot! This works in so many ways - The contrast between the near and far, large and small, the white and black - great stuff. The light is just right to show the incredible detail, but not too contrasty. Well done!

A very fine way to present those reliefs - I like the mix of close and far motifs and the diffent colours - seems the closest been cleaned lately. Thanks Chris for one from your emourmous archive :-)

Hi Chris. I see what you mean about the symmetry being in two parts. The textures are great. I bet this would be good as a b/w as well. Nice shot Chris. See ya next week.

Good morning Chris,

Hi Chris, A nice composition to this close up shot of the sculpture. You have very well made use of the lights and contrast. Nice PoV and DoF. You have managed to show the 3D very well in this shot to both frames. Well done.

Hi Chris,
Very nice capture of Apsaras. It's not easy to take a original picture on Angkor Wat and you do it.
Great job
