Buddhas

Click here to return to Tony's Photography website.

The first photograph I ever took with a proper camera (my faithful Olympus OM1N) was of a large Amitayus Buddha figure in a shop window in Paris. Since then I have photographed many more in many contexts, including Buddhist rituals. The images in these pictures are of Buddha forms from private collections, public museums and personal shrines. In a previous life I used meditate (almost) every day and publish Buddhist books!
