Reading the comments there is a slightly surreal old style photolithographic montage thing happening for my eyes with the pale statues and their garden backgrounds. Nice job on the sky I think.

A bit of honesty may be needed here Roger. I messed up on this image. First off, I had been playing with camera settings so this was accidently shot as a small, highly compressed jpeg instead of the prefered large size Raw format. The sky was white so I PSed in a poor hazy blue.The tones on the Buddah are real. It was in shade so I used the on camera flash to fill in. Exposure was manually set to make the exterior parts of the image properly exposed with the flash filling in the interior spaces. Just thought I'd share. The Leica IS very flexible and the optics challenge me to stress them. Thanks for commenting - John

Standing Buddhas are less common, I believe, and reclining ones quite rare. The colours in the brighter areas are almost pastel, perhaps the effect of exposing so perfectly for the shadowed Buddhas. The overall effect is subtly surreal, almost dreamlike. A very fine image that (once again) impresses me with what the Leica Digilux can do in your hands.

Looks like the levels adjustment on the building in the background has created a little bit of a halo when you lightened it, perhaps you could try to feather your selections slightly to counteract this aberration.
