Utroligt smukt. For mange år siden. venligst steenflemming

said steenflemming 2007.04.01 at 11:59:28 PDT

Visted Xian in late 2005. The warriors are actually lined by rank with the lowest ranked first. There are geologists studying their composition in order to preserve. Great closeup shot but I agree, the terra cotta is something to see.

Great picture!! Hope you enjoyed the soldiers as much as I did. We also enjoyed the train ride from Beijing to Xian.

said herbmorg 2007.03.30 at 13:39:46 PDT

Like it shot in black and white-color sometimes is very distracting-you notice the color first instead of the details, these statues are 5' 11", it must of takes years to make all of these...plus the horses, weapons, etc..

said foxyfloridalady 2007.03.30 at 12:07:49 PDT

They just had a show on the history channel about them. They were all in military formation, in full armor, all had weapons-There were 8000 of them, and they were 2200 years old!!! The details and workmanship...incredible- fantastic shot. I believe there was quite a race of people centuries ago.

said foxyfloridalady 2007.03.30 at 11:54:38 PDT

My son actually got to see these in person when he travelled to China as a student ambassador last year. Great shot...

This is different!!! Black and White!!! I think that's what makes it "The Picture of the Day"!!! Congratulations!!!

said frone08 2007.03.30 at 09:21:06 PDT

Good Morning, I would just like to say that I saw something about these warriors on television last week and would love to see more of these guys in webshot. I enjoy this photo very much. Thanks Danny

said gfedo 2007.03.30 at 08:36:52 PDT

cool shot - and i like the b&w

said anitamonroe 2007.03.30 at 08:03:06 PDT

Why did you use black and white for this picture? It is so impressive in terra cotta.

said ens1079 2007.03.30 at 07:49:07 PDT

Nic shot in b/w, but could be done easily!

said zorro3692 2007.03.30 at 07:48:44 PDT

I have seen these magnificent "warriors" personally and they are a sight to behold. I was wondering why the photo is not in COLOR? These are not black and white "warriors." It would look so much better in COLOR.

said legaleagle101 2007.03.30 at 07:37:25 PDT

I like the way you shot the terracotta warriors with their horses at their back! Good composition and it works well in B6W! Congratulations for the front page PoD!

said shukun20 2007.03.30 at 07:36:32 PDT

Love the way they are set rank-on-rank with the cavalry

said Maple307 2007.03.30 at 07:36:15 PDT

Interesting picture..I have never seen any pictures like this before. Congratulations on POTD!!

said angie35016 2007.03.30 at 07:31:55 PDT

one of the amazing things I have seeen in my live!

said shaiba00 2007.03.30 at 07:30:44 PDT

My husband and I visited Xian and saw these soldiers. They are incredible, but your shot is, too. Originally the soldiers were painted true to life colors, but fade as they hit the light. They are not uncovering more until they figure out a way to preserve the original colors. Thanks for your lovely work.

said jkilbour105 2007.03.30 at 07:29:37 PDT

craftsmanship is just wonderful on these statues. Wonderful shot, wow the time it must have taken to complete a statue. Thank you for sharing, congrats on POTD.

said NeelyMargory 2007.03.30 at 06:58:00 PDT

There was an Exhibit I had the honor of visiting some 18 years ago that included warriors such as this. What an awesome amazing experience. Thank you for the Photo. It was a wonderful reminder.

said lynnephotos 2007.03.30 at 06:55:45 PDT

said worldtripper3 2007.03.30 at 05:32:05 PDT

these were actually cast from the warriors themselves, they made molds from them.

said jaybyrd107 2007.03.30 at 05:27:03 PDT

Congratulations on your POTD. I have to agree with all the others. Great shot of a beautiful preserved ancient civilisation. Thank you for sharing. Marlene-Holland

I have a friend that travels extensively throughout the world every year. She visited China last year, and she said these statues are the most incredible thing she has ever seen. Great shot you took. Thanks for sharing.
