Weekly Photo Challenge: One Shot, Two Ways

10 Aug

This week on the daily post, photographer Jeff Sinon wrote an interesting article on photography composition i.e. finding that perfect shot in portrait or landscape.  And then the interesting weekly challenge followed – One Shot, Two Ways where we need to capture one scene / subject in two images — a horizontal and a vertical version.

I captured both these shots from the same spot in Siem Reap, Cambodia in the famous Angkor Thom or the Bayon temple. The horizontal image is of the entire temple complex and shows the detailing of the carvings and a glimpse of some of the 54 pillars with 216 faces of the Buddha.

The vertical image is just the gateway of temple and shows a close-up of idol of Buddha and shows a glimpse of the various gates inside the temple.

        Absolutely! My husband and I went to Siem Reap just before moving back to the states. We had been living in Thailand for almost 2 years. Siem Reap was amazon and sad at the same time…a whole generation of people were just missing. It put a lot into perspective for me. Cheers!
