Temples exploration day

Angkor Wat sunrise

It’s all started with full of excitement and curiosity. Man, I’m visiting the 8th wonder of the day. This is something gross!!!

It begins with the visit to Angkor Wat, the main temple, the biggest of all!

The photo on the right is taken with 3 exposures combined at -2, 0 and 2. It is then combined using Photomatix.

We spent about 2 hours at Angkor Wat alone because of its enormous size. We didn’t manage to cover the whole temple in the end of 2 hours though.
