Photographer's Note
Swaddee Krub everybody,
Songkrang 2008,This is the second enter in the late afternoon. The entrance was quite dark when enter the long cover way. Then you saw the light came closer when you walk in. Suddenly,The beautiful element appear before your eye.;-)
For post process,Firstly I croped then use shadow/highlight tool a little bit to composition and open detail on white wall and adjust more contrast to foreground. Secondly,I use color balance and hue/saturation tool to adjust the color for architecture.Finally,I used smart sharpen, framing and resize to finish.
For helpful Information:

Sawadee Patshoo,
This one brings me good memories. It could be taken for "just a tourist snapshot", which isn't always that bad, but the remarkable light management in such a challenging situation and the clever framing make it much more interesting than that.
Very informative note!
Regards, José.

Sawasdee Khrap Khun Patsoo,
What an inviting entrance you have captured here, just makes me want to walk through the door. The glimpse of what the inside of the Wat Prakeaw has to offer the visitor is surely intriguing, the shot leaves me wanting to see more. Well thought out composition and POV. Good light management as well.
Cheers
Peter
