Bigmango, they are all nice shots, but the last one is simply splendid!
You might try to level it to the right in Photoshop. But no biggy...

That's all for temples, shrines and ruins. I still have photos of Siem Reap town and Tonle Sap, asian's largest lake and Vietnamese descendants who live in the lake, to share with you next time.

Absolutely astounding. How I wish I can visit there someday. Everything looks marvellous, no words to describe the emotion in seeing those ancient sculptures - so I imagine how can it be for real.

-I will try to level it up as suggested. Where are you in North America? Visited Thailand lately?
Orio
-Glad you like them. Let me know if you decide to come over. I might not have a place for you to stay as my house is fully occupied with wife, kid, nephew,mother (We have large family here staying together like most asian country). I could at least give you suggestions on where to go and show you around Bangkok.

bigmango, first, do you have a first name we can address you? I'm in
Huntsville, Alabama, SE United States. My wife is in Srang Koh which is
a town north of Ubonratchathanee. Her family is quite large with lots of
uncles, cousins, aunts, etc, while mine is quite small. I have a surviving
half-brother, my only relative by blood who lives in the Portland Oregon
area, Pacific Northwest. I'll be visiting him this summer as he is not well.
There's a distinct possibility that I will be moving to his area and then I
will send for my wife to rejoin me there. Oh yes, I'll be retiring to
Thailand eventually, the Baht is very strong while the US dollar is very
weak right now. Sad
