Nice shot and atmosphere, misanthropic. Any particular filter or post-processing used?
Just LR4 and the 2nd of the 3 Cross Process presets. I dropped exposure down 1/3rd stop on the RAW and default sharpening.

Lee, you are as awesome as your photo is cool Looks like a good time, what was he playing?
Haha thanks Carsten
I'm not sure, I don't know much blues. I was mainly there for the barbeque
I can tell you he was a masterful guitar player.
Two stages, half a dozen local groups, free admission. About a dozen different restaurants selling barbeque and po'boys and two dozen craft booths. There's a festival every damn weekend in NOLA, but this is one of the best.

Add me to this camp. I enjoy looking at what the OM-D can do and I enjoy looking at what the GH-2/GH-3 can do as well. What I would not like is sifting through pages of OM-D pics if I'm researching the GH-2/GH-3.

Add another one. I have an OM-D and am interested in what others are doing with it, not so much in other m4/3 cameras.

A shot from my recent trip to Angkor Wat, Cambodia.
Love it Bobby. I've been there a couple times not too long ago. Would love to get back soon. Did the OM get exposed to any of the heavy rains or other weather while you were there? One of the (many) reasons I've styed with 1Dxx over a move to the 5d has been the weather sealing.
No rain when we were there, fortunately. We didn't like taking the Tuk Tuk though, because of the dust and fumes kicked up by the traffic and some dirt roads. Everything is so cheap anyway, so we got our Tuk Tuk driver to drive us around in his Honda CRV after the first day, for like only $10 more a day gas included!
Here's a shot taken at dawn.

Thanks ... and No, I don't know what you mean. As far as I know, he's a real monk. He was just there talking to friend, so we politely asked if we could take some photos of him, and his friend kindly stepped aside for that purpose.

Great shots Bobby, love the one of the monk (I think he is a monk, but you know what I mean :-P )
A shot of a less-visited Angkor temple. That's my buddy on the other side of the passage of doorways, and it was a chance meeting i.e. not a setup shot. Would have been terrific to have a monk praying by that alter table. The lighting was just awesome and it shows off the color tones of the temple walls and grounds.

Well more or less meant that I my knowledge about monks or regular citizen is quite thin, afaik that looked like a monk by the clothing but maybe it wasn't. Apparently it was. No offense meant by it, neither to you now the monks.
Absolutely not offended by your remark. For a minute, I thought you may know something more than my very limited knowledge of monks. I don't think the regular locals would wear a monk-like orange robe, as foreigners may mistake them to be real monks, and I think the monastery will frown on this.

Good thing then! No my knowledge about monks it most likely even more limited!
True that, I wasn't sure wether only monks were allowed to wear such clothing or not. Looks like a very interesting place to go shoot photos!
