Someone is using my name in an attempt to scam people. I am not now nor have I ever been looking for any kind of assistant. I certainly wouldn't ever ask anyone to cash a check to me or to make a Western Union payment to anyone else (especially not someone in Manilla!). This is a classic Fake Check scam. Learn more about that at
www.fakechecks.org. If you've been in contact with this person, please report them ASAP!
This jade Buddha at Doi Suthep temple in Chiang Mai seemed like a most obvious candidate for selective color removal in Photoshop. In a way it is representative of that day. It was raining like crazy and all the colors everywhere seemed all washed out except for the translucent emerald-like quality of the jade in this Buddha statue. The original is surrounded by the typical golds and reds found in any Buddhist temple. I find this depiction to be much more interesting, however.
