Kalimera Danos,
good capture of part of the ruins with a lot of great details in this good overview. The photographer looks a bit unreal, which adds a lot of interest. I like the different textures everywhere.

Iassou Danos,
A funny one with the photohrapher sticking his head outside the window and the superb Tha Prohm ruins always looking so spectacular.
Good light control and sharpness.

Ta Prohm is an amazing place and well worth a visit. I would have preferred it without the other photographer, but I do know how busy this place is and you were lucky to have only one westerner in shot. Well done

Very good shot, accurately composed, with natural colours. I especially love this little touch - the photographer on the left, caught in the act ;-)
I'm not sure about "No Entry" plaque, but surely it was hard to avoid and together with another photographer, it was the part of scenery after all.
Best regards

This is indeed a magical shot! Looks like it has come out of the history pages. The photographer's addition was a very good touch. I loved it.
Well done,

Hi Danos,
The man through the window looks funny, i have no problems with that. Those wooden things with rope is something i don't like. I was there myself and had a lot of work to do to keep them out of my pictures. I have a much more close-up from the tree and the door to avoid those wooden things. But under these circumstances the final result looks pretty good and gives us a nice view how magical this place it. A real nice overview...you did well here with your wide-angle.

Tu as très bien choisi l'endroit.

Hello Danos,

Frankly...at first I thought 'well, here's another Ta Prohm' shot, I have seen many of them, but then I spotted the photographer and that made a world of difference. A great shot. I don't mind the wooden things that much, they seem to be part of the scene these days...

Hi Danos,

I like your humoristic approach of these ancient cultural inheritance with the fellow –photographer appearing from an opening in the wall. I think it makes the picture more open.

Hello Danos,

You captured an interesting scene while including one photographer but ancient parts are more important for me. Mossy textures and tree roots are incredible there and colors are splendidly different. Excellent one with your very informative note. Congratulations. Have a nice weekend.

Hi Danos,

I remember this place from photos of some of my friends. As I remember I was mostly impressed by trees and their roots becoming one with magnificent build structures. Jungle slowly taking this place for its own. It is remarkable processes, no wonder that attracts so many of us. The atmophere in your capture appears like from the past, only the man with camera gives an orientation of modern nowdays. Excellent ambient, dominated by size and time process where our presence seems so small and unimportant. Darkish mood of small glimp of the sky gives some comfort but the mood of time process stays and dominates. Remarkable documentation, thank you for sharing it!

Wish you lovely Sunday,
Jeri

Kalimera Dano!
Your photo is a kind of a fairy tail with a "ghost" shooting from the window;-)

I imagined this temple to be much bigger, but your documentary photo presents a good comparison.

Many thanks for sharing with us!

It's almost the same place as Floydian's picture.
The inclusion of the photographer is really welcome: it gives live to the place and it's kind of funny in the same time.

Hi Danos. This shot really shows the state of the ruins. Great photo. Good detail and colours. The other photog and rope barrier give way the touristy nature of the temple now though. Nice work and thanks for sharing.

Hi Danos,
the spontaneity of the moment with the photographer extracting the head, break the solemn seriousness of the image, it is a great contrast! Jejeje.
Excellent architecture and we can estimate the ruinous condition. The surrounding atmosphere is magnificent and very peculiar.

Hello Danos,
One of the more photographed sites in the world, it is hard to take a picture without getting at least one photographer in the frame..!
Jokes aside, I like the point of view including the marvellous ancient architecture, and that amazing tree is nothing but an eye-catcher...
A well balanced composition with wonderful details!

Γειά σας Danos,
Amazing and magical place!... Very well captured with that subdued light. I guess that it would still be a great photo without him, but I kind of like the presence of the photographer in the window, acting like an alter-ego of yourself. I agree with Henk about the ropes on the corner not being so pretty, but they don't disturb me much and in a way they give a realist touch to the photo.

All these high-seated feudals all around the world left something that will honor their names all the years of our history: buildings. I adore these stone-works, no matter where they are standing. This one looks so outstanding, a bit like Mayan temples, also in jungle, covered with greenery.
Great!

Hi Danos,
Those trees look frightening, as if they eating away the ruins. I like your composition here, including the tourist on the left. The ropes and stakes on the right are unfortunate but apparently unavoidable unless you moved closer. Too bad so many places are truly ruined by modern junk. Regards,
Hakan

The place is simply amazing : the nature vs men work. And light and colors are simply perfect to enhance that opposition and idea. And I don't know what to think about the photographer. Whatever, an impressive post.

A perfect shot of a remarkable place!

Le photographe qui semble sortir de son cadre pour prendre ce site en photo me plait beaucoup et il donne de la vie au cliché. Ces temples envahis par les arbres de la forêt ont toujours fasciné ceux qui les ont approchés.

Haha, well captured with the photographer (may be from TE ;-), Danos. Yes, this is quite a photogenic place and you show that well here. Amazing those roots growing over the ruins - it's a magic place with an incredible atmosphere. Excellent exposure and composition - The best, I repeat, is the photographer - it's original and it gives scale.
