Wow, you captured the country extremely well. I was there at the same time but stayed close to the surf in Hikkaduwa, got lots of nice beach shots though! Where were those reclining buddhas? I have not seen them in the guidebooks before, look like an amazing spot!

Cheers,
Kf

Thank you for the compliments...

Those statues were in "Polonnaruwa", Mid-North of the country. They say those statues are three of the last 'realistic' versions of Buddha. I think it's a must see for all visitors......

Nice series. The watermark is discreetly placed and not distracting. When people post images with a large watermark across the middle of the image, it ruins them.

I don't care about the watermark these are the first "trip" images of Sri Lanka I've seen and they are fascinating.
