Swaddee Krub everybody,

Second time in Nepal and second time for me at Swayambhunath(Devnagari: स्वयम्भूनाथ स्तुप),One of the most sacred place in nepal.I walked up the hill in the morning that sun light start shining.There're a lot of place to take a good shot in this moment.The main architecture in this place was Stupa that in specific character of Tantric buddist stupa in this region.I would like to use character conclusion of this Stupa from Wiki that said "The stupa consists of a dome at the base. Above the dome, there is a cubical structure present with eyes of Buddha looking in all four directions. There are pentagonal Toran present above each of the four sides with statues engraved in them. Behind and above the torana there are thirteen tiers. Above all the tiers, there is a small space above which the Gajur is present".This Eye was impressed me suddenly and pushed me to took the first shot in this place.

For this photo,I scanned for 35mm negative film.I cropped a little bit to adjust a composition.I must repair dot and scratch by clone stamp tool and used curve to adjust contrast.Next I adjusted color balance to push clear color.To completed,I use smart sharpen,resizing and canvas.:-)

For useful information of Swayambhunath that include the meaning of symbolism in this place that inspire for naming the title.Please follow this link: Swayambhunath

Patshoo, This is one of beautiful picture of Swaymbhunath I have seen. The clarity of picture and colors are adorable. I liked the way you frmaed the picture as well.

Hi Patshoo,
this is a very nice image. I like these rich colours and composition. Maybe I'd like to see a bit wider shot, and slightly sharper too, but those are only minor issues. Well done!
Cheers
Michal

Sawasdee Patshoo,

Fantastic photo of the Nepal temple with so characteristic eyes. The colors and the composition are excellent. How it looks at me! I have never been in Nepal. It is well worth seeing.

Hi patshoo
It looks like these eyes are staring at me intensely, they look serene but at the same time quite intrusive. Nice image with strong glow frmo the golden parts.
Have a nice day JY

Hi, Patshoo!
Wonderful colors and composition... "The Eye of Wisdom and Compassion" has a great impact.
