Buddha Statue
4/6/08
Buddha statue at the Huntington's Japanese garden, complete with flower offerings (and a quarter!). I took Ann here for her birthday and had a really great time. We'd never been to the Huntington before, and it's absolutely amazing. Before we walked around we stuffed ourselves at the Tea Room buffet. We'll definitely come back, it's fantastic!
By the way, I masked the statue and the table and did some blending mode tricks to make it jump out. I also darkened and lowered the contrast of the background. I tried to back off on the adjustments when it started to look too unnatural. What do you think?
