Hey Mark! How's it going? I love the colors in this shot. I had an artist friend that went to Mexico years ago and came home creating "plaster" paintings and murals that all had this kind of worn color look. Your eye keeps getting better Mark! #1953880Mark Allin October 15, 2005
Jeff - great to hear from you!! All is well, still loving Asia and very busy with the job and family. But still finding time for shooting and getting more and more satisfaction from it. Thanks for taking the trouble to stop by the gallery.Trust all is well with you. Do put me in touch with your Cambodia student.
Keep in touch and thanks again for all your encouragement.

Thanks, Brian. This was actually part of a Cambodian temple, which survived Khmer Rouge obliteration so it is extra poignant for me. #1982633Mark Allin October 22, 2005

Congrats Mark on your POTD for this great capture. I love this photo, and the others in your gallery from Asia. I have been around that area a few years ago, and wanted to go back to Angkor Wat after the rainy season, to photograph the ruins with thier green mossy covering. Any idea what the best time of year would be? Enjoy the smells and sounds, and the wonderful people. #2118691Scott Pedersen November 25, 2005
