Hi, I'm new here but I never stopped admiring your photographs.

Please, accept my contribution to this thread.

This is a Wat near Khon Kaen that I thought it looked better in the lake than the real thing.

I know that the quality is not good enough but I keep trying.

Many Thanks.

Hi TP1 and welcome to the photo forum.

Nice first post,and don't worry.You pic is 10 times better than my first one on here.

Thank you Shaggy1969, looking at your picture named Dust, in the best shot competition thread it will take me years, if ever to come to your standard.

It is a masterpiece, well done

Calling The Earth To Witness / Earth Touching Buddha

The most common pose you will find in Thai temples is with the legs crossed, the left hand in the lap, and the right hand pointing to the ground with the palm facing inward toward the Buddha. This posture is known as Calling The Earth to Witness, and it is the definition of the moment of enlightenment for the Buddha.

Wat Luang Poo Dam

Ko Si Chang, up the hill, from inside what I nicknamed the Golden Temple (missus calls it: Saan Chao Pho Khao Ya )

(I needed a breakaway from all that gold colour)

Temple doors and Buddha statues at the temple in Ban Nong Waeng, Kalasin, NE Thailand

Wat Traphang Ngoen - Sukhothai.

I believe this beautiful place has been photographed many times before from much more skilled photographers than me.

But this is my poor attempt to share with you what I enjoyed.

TP1,

you got me with that one. Went through all the pages happily realising no one has posted Wat Mahatad in Sukothai...

Had that as screensaver on my labtop for ages.

Yesterday MTB balade ,

A Wat I have discover ,

Road 227 Phangkhon -- Kalasin ;

It's about 7 kilometers from Phangkhon going to Kalasin ; a road on the right side ; it's a road mark with the direction of the Wat ;

a huge " sit down " Bouddha, maybe 20 m high and a golden site with many Bouddhas

Wat Nongwang = Khon Kaen.

Troubadix, what's in that green box?

Buddha Mountain, Pattaya.

One of my own post removed and two comments associated with that post.

Note to self,don't post any personal images!

In the WangNam Kheaw district in Korat, there is a small village called Suk Sri Ngam.

In that village there is a very small Wat that I thought it was quite picturesque.

And the inside of the Wat.

Wat Tham Sumontha,Wang Sam Mo, Udon Thani

Buddha statues in the base of the mountain.

From what I understand,these Buddhas represent the days of the week.

^^^^ I may be mistaken Shaggy but I reckon Sunday is easily spotted!

Khon Kaen, City pillar shrine.

A famous monk and former governor of Khon Kaen placed a stone inscription from an ancient site in Amphoe Chum Phae here for a Buddhism rite and set up the city pillar shrine.

On the right hand side you can see the Pullman hotel.

The inside with the stone.

Offerings, please notice the pigs head.

Outside the shrine,offerings of a lot of little animal statuettes.

@ TP1 Thanks for those last Khon Kaen photos you posted.I have been past that shrine countless times but have never managed to stop

to make some photos,am sure that there are not too many roundabouts with sure a beautiful center piece.Have you ever been to the

"Elephant Temple" just outside Khon Kaen?

@ sunshine ....Lol,well spotted.It would seem that Sunday's Buddha (Pang Thawai Net) is missing,but it appears that there are two of Monday's Buddha.Someone made a cock-up!!!

NOT ! my photo, just for clarification:
