A Taoist Temple.

This Chinese Temple is located in the middle of a hill. I made an impromptu visit there after a family lunch at a nearby restaurant. C&C are welcome.

Very nice. What lens did you use for #1.

You will not be judged as a photographer by the pictures you take, but by the pictures you show.

Thanks Darrell. I used Nikkor 18-55mm kit lens + CPL for all the above photos.

Taoist temple with a statue of buddha?

Funny thing about Taoism is the original writings were never really intended to be a religion. That came later when people decided to do it. I studied the original writings of Laozi (老子) in classical Chinese (I have a degree in Chinese) and it's nothing to do with religion, it's all philosophy.

Like the framing in No.4. The rest are pleasing too. No.3 is an interesting composition was it due to a distracting foreground?
