The images I am uploading tonight are probably not for the sepia haters.

I don't mind sepia, and I think it works quite well for the first and also the third photo. In the first, it brings out the age of the temple(s), and in the third I like the sharpened and contrasted effect. I don't think it works on the second, though, mainly because of the sky.

Have to go there one day - it looks amazing.

Cool captures Steve.

I would like to see a tad more contrast in the first - just my thoughts.

Not real keen on the PP in the last.

I like your caption for the second shot - which I really like also.

Cheers, Mick :) :) :)

second one is best, i feel the third is a bit too processed... its a really beautiful place... serene and peaceful, too bad the people are under such a poor economic climate.

without sounding too much like i have agenda (which i dont) check out http://www.transformcambodia.com if u feel like helping out the next generation there.

i might be new to photography but i do think that the first is one done in sepia does show the temples age effectively

the second one is beautiful too, but the third i think is too sharp and doesnt work for me. content is great though.
