Point and Shoot

By shirleypickford

Buddhist Temple, Singapore

I've had hours of amusement with old slides published by ASMK & Co sometime before 1965, digitising with the selfie option on a tablet and trying to identify the photographs with Google image search and luck.

The pictures were in colour but have faded, so I made monochrome versions to help the image search and found some postcards from the same publisher on auction sites and in museum collections.

It took a while to identify the Buddhist Temple slide as the Sakya Muni Buddha Gaya Temple (known as Temple of a Thousand Lights) with statues of golden creatures leaping into Race Course Road.
