Amazing story. Brilliant photo.

Salsbells69,
A building energy occurs the more I view this photograph of yours….all imaginations and senses awaken out of sleep: eyes to the intricacies of carved wood and deities; smell to the scent of rain and incenses; hearing tinkling bells, feet to earth, prayer; to touch, to be surrounded with the air and energies of the ages, very conscious of your own breathing; tasting a broadened palate for the world and your place in it…faith replaces hunger….there is no lack….there is gratitude for how richly your senses have been fed…

You have blessed us all in sharing this art and experience. Thank you.

With Peace, Love, & Gratitude,
Mariam Muradian

Thank you so much from the history lesson on the white elephant. (not pictured)
Cool shot with the mist!!

Great framing and good capture of the mist. I like the sillhoettes in the foreground.

great shot and an amazing escape it sounds like!

So mystical. Love the feel. Great work !

Great shot! None of my pictures of this area in Doi Suthep turned out this well.

Doi Suthep is a magical place which I’d like to revisit someday.
You managed to capture that magic even though the weather wasn’t that great apparently.
Although, of course, in this case it enhances the mystique of the place.

Good times indeed! What a wonderful trip that was. I should upload some of my own Thailand pictures, but I have so much travel photography that I don’t know where to start choosing!

This is so Beautiful!

excellent shot!

so exquisite . ..so beautiful. ....so amazing.. ... ... :)

Beautiful work!!

Nice atmosphere you have captured,well done!!!

great image , and great place , very spirtual .

What an amazing image.. and thanks for the description. Well worthy of the comments you have received.

very beautiful … wonderful prespective ….

Wow a great pic with a vey informative subcaption…..good coverage Salsbells

Beautiful capture…love this so much!!!

its just wonderful !

There is power and truth is this shot. I spent 3 weeks in Thailand some years ago, and was too ungrounded to really understand what was going on around me. As well as too young and high. Quite fun, but…..... oh who cares. As I look at this shot it has changed many times, and each change involves energy and movement. Quite incredible.

So mystical, layer upon layer, lovely

Beautiful.

absolutely wonderful image and story to go along with, sometimes missing something is for a reason!!!!

Very well composed. Great shot!

Great framing – marvelous capture.

That’s a great scene, well framed. Nice contrasts and a rich, colourful capture !

we love it there ,we were lucky to get blessed there ,great shot and well done

No wonder it sold, awesome image Sal.

This really is a stunning image that conjures up all the magical beauty of this part of the world. My daughter taught English here in Chang Mai for the British Council for a couple of years and loved every minute she was there. This picture will bring back many happy memories when I point it out to her!! Brilliant photography!

Very beautiful and keeps the eyes moving as it’s filled with so much wonder!

Sals – I love the ethereal-like setting. Everything is gold. So unusual, compared to our country.
Excellent composition.

Very rich in detail, an exquisite image.

beautiful! interesting story about it!

This is a fantastic image…the depth, the mist, the colors…it all adds up to one amazing image. I’m glad you decided to share it and certainly glad you missed the train!

intelligent perspective – not the usual snap we see from these type of locations

that looks great! i cant wait to go there!

this is a beautiful shot.

Stratosperic ,Atmospheric, i’ve been to Thailand three times, and never got a shot so good.

I love this area and you made me smile when i saw this great shot love the details so much to look at

yep it did

wow this is amazing!! i adore it!!

You have been blessed with a wicked eye and that you missed the train derailment. Blessed for sure.
This is an instant fav for my collection. Thank you.
Peace,
Sassi

nice work Sal – love the silhouettes of the bells … love the location too… Chang Mai is a great place

Sal,
Everything has been said, all I can add is I’m bloody wrapped that you missed the train !

wow sal, what an image, your so lucky to go such places, and even luckier with the train, loved the story of the elephant too, reminds me of celtic monks who would do the exact same thing with cows and the like : )

Wow, what a unique image and I love the words as well. It’s great to see a different view of Thailand, from the “beachy” photographs that we are so used to seeing… great work and well spotted!

Love how you use the bell to add interest to the image. The rest, I don’t have to say waht as everyone mention already. Very well done.
