Beautiful series you've posted for us

Images #2 + #5 + #7 are my favouites,
very nice use of DOF with these great colours too.

The Black & White shot of the wooden statue is also very appealing.

Thanks for sharing, nice work doingcool .... Skippy

I like this series as well. All of the compositions are very interesting.

I used to live in La Habra and drove over the hill to get to the
60 Freeway and would drive by the this temple.

Thanks for showing me what it's like on the inside.

Can visitors drop in?
