Doc Henry Posted December 6, 2010 Author Share #14 Posted December 6, 2010 Henri - Thank you for this fond reminder. All the shots are lovely and I'm sorry I never thought of shooting the incense sticks as you did. Thank you Stuart for your nice comment. The photo i show you now , dated from 1996 : i took with my Leica R4S with his 50mm Summicron.Film is Fuji Provia 100. It shows another part of this temple (which is great) and which is currently closed to the public for restoration this year . Behind you have a big lake, where the king and queen rested. I'll try to find pictures of this lake. [ATTACH]234089[/ATTACH] Minh Mang July 1996 Henry Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
