In the series of temples between Angkor Wat and Angkor Thom...I don't know the exact name of this series...but, it is inside of an active mindfield...and therefore of some danger I suppose. People were unhappy that I left the beaten path. Traveller

Very nice. Where is it?

This is a wonderful shot, Trav, and I especially like the way the light is reflecting around the face. I think I'd try lightening the face by using the lasso tool and then levels or curves to brighten it. I'm not a big fan of the dodge tool for faces, as it seems to flatten the contrast too much. I'd also try to pull down some of the blown highlights in the foreground step. Please don't get me wrong...I'm only making these suggestions because this is such an outstanding image that's worth spending some time with.

Thanks for the more then kind compliment, Trav. I like the picture, just thought that the face should be a bit brighter and tried to have it done to check how the picture could look like.
You know, in ideal case, we should shot pictures like this with a flash. Yes, I know, i know - the world is not perfect ...

Thanks, K, with your talent and skill you can do whatever you might like with any of my images. I also added a little catch light in the eyes before I posted this with the Dodge Tool, not as much as you...but still some.

I'm glad you're having fun (grin)

Hi Trav, I allowed myself to touch slightly your great picture. (See in pending). Just a bit ... as an idea. Hope you don't mind.

Another good one, very 'atmospheric'. Well captured.
