This is the Great Buddha of Kamakura (Diabutsu), as it was in 1964. This was cast in 1252, and is 43.8 feet tall, including the platform. It weighs 267,000 pounds.
I can't provide any EXIF information, because I used a Nikon 35mm camera with Kodachrome film, and since it was taken in 1964, I certainly can't remember any camera settings. To digitize it, I scanned it into my computer.

I also can't add it to my gallery, because it wasn't taken with an 'approved' camera on the official list.
