More info | Mar 19, 2009 00:11 | #65 Go4EVA! wrote in post #7552635  Here are a couple (poor quality) photos of the famous "standing Buddha" located at a cemetery in Ushiku, Japan. The Buddha is 120m (394 ft) tall. (At one time, the Ushiku Daibutsu was listed in the Guinness book of world records as the tallest bronze statue in the world, but I think that claim may no longer be accurate.) Thanks for adding....I was really confused for a moment as we have something similar near us. Here's a not-so-well-framed pic I took ages ago of our bronze buddha (must get out there again now I've better lenses!).  HOSTED PHOTO please log in to view hosted photos in full size.

I think you've caught some wonderful angles and your use of colour makes a refreshing change, in that many (me included) seem to end up converting to B&W... Tom K. wrote in post #7553327 [too many great images to comment on!!!] Tom, your post #58 reminds me so much of the UK. Spookily similar in every way. Thanks for so many amazing shots. I particularly love the bokeh in the downward-looking angel(?) statue. And the lone cross of just "Alice" is stunning. "Whatever you do, enjoy yourself...otherwise, what's the point."

I am glad you enjoyed them. The one that really touches me is the 5th one I posted. It is the grave stone of Teresa Feldman who died at 6 years old in 1926. The stunning thing is that 83 years after she died someone still puts flowers on her grave. Please proceed, Governor.

Thank you for sharing. Scott Evans Photography

Mar 19, 2009 08:00 | #71 skygod44 wrote in post #7551443 Excellent additions! Thanks. And I love the vignetting on your images. I think it really "works". I love that little cross at the bottom. A touching piece of human emotion, I think. I also have to say I think you've got a fabulous background in that shot, too. The more I look at the background, the more details I'm seeing, such as the shadow of another grave to the right, and the layer-upon-layer of tombstones to the left. Briliant eye! Keep 'em coming.
