Solemn
A long time ago…when the Kingdom of Thailand was known as Siam – Bhudda’s heads were lopped off each and every statue during the war. Arruthaya was once the capital of Siam. The Thai’s are in the process of finding and returning each bhudda head to their original body.
Featured in the Statues and Such Group!

Not too people many can take grey and use its richness as full colour. I love the contrast between the stone and brick in this shot…

Wonderfully titled, Buddah would not be angry with those that chopped the heads, he would feel only compassion, as that is all he knows

Thankyou for the kind comments Lee. I agree..bhudda would be compassionate. :)
