Bangkok Temples

Just recently I found Stephen Cysewski’s photographs on the web and contacted him. He seems to be a really nice chap and was kind enough to give permission to publish some of his pictures here.

I just want to share some of them here:

(I have no idea what’s in there, but it surely looks interesting! Who came up with this idea? This is in Wat Klong Toey Nok).

This is also an interesting picture - depicting a scene from the Buddha’s life that is not so often illustrated as vividly as here (in fear of distracting the monks from their meditations).

As you can see, Buddhism too has it’s lower realms that you don’t want to get into…

This is from a temple in Supan Buri

In Chaochengsao.

All pictures (C) by Stephen Cysewski, www.WanderingInThailand.com - you can see more of his pictures there.

In my opinion, many of his most beautiful photographs are from everyday life in Thailand, but since this blog is about Bangkok’s temples I didn’t want to post them here. However, if you do appreciate beautiful photography, I recommend you visit his website.
