I made this poster about the Five Strengths some time ago to accompany a talk I gave on the subject.

Earlier in the month I went for a tour of some of the temples in Bukit Mertajam and will be publishing the results over the next couple of weeks.
Poster on Impermanence: FastStone Image Viewer
When I was at the Taiping Temple I became quite expert at quite quickly getting up what I hope were eye-catching and attractive posters in an attempt to interest people in our events.
Photographic Paintings of Tonle Sap: FotoSketcher
In earlier posts I have shown some of the tools I am using to output panoramic photographs and make videos out of them. Here I will show a great software that can make “paintings” out of your photos.
Ta Phrom: Gods and Angels in Ruins: Digital Clip Factory
I had used the Digital Clip Factory to scan from one end of a photograph to another in order to make viewing of the long murals as Bayon presentable. I also have another video made this time of the East Wall.
Mural Walls at Bayon 2: Digital Clip Factory
Doing long scans in this way is really an imaginative extension of what the software was meant for. A more usual way of employing it is to animate still photographs to make them more interesting. This is called the Ken Burns effect.
Mural Walls at Bayon 1: Microsoft’s Image Composite Editor
On the second day at Angkor I started taking photographs of the walls at Bayon, it was actually quite hard work to shuffle along corridors holding the camera at a steady height, trying not to bump into anyone, and not to fall over either.
View of Penang Island: Hugin and Panorama Tools
I had found some software that makes excellent, seamless panoramas, and I had visions of panoramas from the Bayon in Angkor that would, like their originals, be wall-long.
People at Angkor
Photographs of various people I saw around the Angkor Sites. They were collected from the two trips I made to Angkor in March and June.
The Roulos Group
We were only on site for three days during this trip, which is a very short time when trying to get around and see some of the main sites, see some new places, which I hadn’t seen before, and also get some photography done!
