A weathered stone statue of a serene, deity-like figure standing outdoors with hands pressed together in a prayerful gesture. The figure wears an ornate headdress and detailed jewelry carved into the stone, with patches of moss and aging visible on its surface. Lush green trees and soft yellow foliage form a blurred natural background, giving the scene a peaceful and contemplative atmosphere.

A golden Buddha statue draped in a patterned robe stands in front of richly decorated temple architecture featuring intricate gold carvings and green inlays. The statue’s reflective surface and detailed features contrast with the ornate gabled roof and decorative structures in the background. Additional smaller golden statues and ornamental elements surround the main figure, emphasizing the elaborate and sacred atmosphere of the setting.

A large, colorful statue of the Laughing Buddha (Budai) sitting atop a turquoise-green dragon sculpture at an outdoor temple or shrine. The Laughing Buddha figure is plump and jovial, wearing golden and red robes with a string of prayer beads around his neck and held in his right hand. His bald head and wide smile are characteristic of the traditional Budai depiction. Below him, a detailed green dragon with gold accents, scales, horns, and whiskers rests with its mouth slightly open. The scene is surrounded by potted plants and flowering bushes with pink and purple blooms. A large natural rock formation rises to the upper right against a clear blue sky. The paint on the statues shows some weathering and chipping, suggesting they have been exposed to the elements for some time.

A large golden dragon-turtle (dragon-headed turtle) statue with smaller baby turtles on its back, perched on dark rocky boulders overlooking a coastal bay. The ornate statue features intricate scale and shell patterns with geometric designs carved into the shell. Behind the statue, lush green trees frame the scene. In the background, calm turquoise-green waters stretch toward a sandy shoreline, with a stone breakwater jetty extending into the sea. Several colorful fishing boats are moored near the jetty. Hazy mountains rise in the distance behind low-rise buildings and coastal vegetation under a pale, slightly overcast sky.

A Thai spirit shrine featuring a painted statue of a hermit (ruesi or rishi) seated cross-legged on a large rock. The figure wears tiger-striped clothing and a matching tiger-patterned turban, has a white beard, and is adorned with bright orange and yellow marigold garlands draped around his neck and shoulders. Below the statue, a memorial plaque with Thai script is affixed to the rock, displaying a black-and-white portrait photo of a woman and a date. At the base of the rock, a small silver-colored figurine of a child stands among scattered offerings including plastic bags, flower petals, and other devotional items. The shrine is set against a backdrop of dense, intertwining mangrove-like tree branches and green foliage, with rocks and fallen leaves on the ground.

A large golden Buddha statue seated in the meditation posture (Bhumisparsha Mudra, with the right hand touching the earth) atop a rocky hilltop pedestal draped in blue and red fabric. The statue features a pointed flame-like ushnisha crown, elongated earlobes, and a serene facial expression characteristic of Thai Buddhist art. At the base of the pedestal, there is a circular plaque with Thai script. The statue is surrounded by lush green tropical trees, with a hazy pale blue sky in the background. A railing is visible on the left side, suggesting this is a viewpoint or elevated temple site, likely in Thailand.

A tall standing Buddhist monk statue dressed in a brown robe on a stone pedestal with Thai script inscribed on its base, surrounded by vibrant pink bougainvillea bushes and lush green tropical vegetation. The statue holds items in both hands and has a yellow sash draped at its base. A group of long-tailed macaque monkeys sits at the foot of the statue among the flowering bushes. Gnarled tree branches extend overhead against a clear pale blue sky, with power lines visible in the background. The setting appears to be a Thai temple or religious site.
