A Buddha figure I had. I used my Sigma 28-80 Lens on Macro setting. Yes, I know, the word destination is in my title.

sorry,didn't vote on this challenge so missed this (my loss!)very very cool.love the texture of the face and those beautiful soft tones /colours to the right.
very very good photo of the sculpure. I would have liked to see more of it. the blurry BG is good as well, except for the blue cast to everything. Best of luck /8
I like the half face of the Buddha statue. Nice soothing blue tones. I'd like to have more light shining directly onto the statue to create more shadow.
Beautiful idea and the composition is dead on. I think this could be improved with some subtle d&b around the chin and checks so to match the nose. Nice work!
