Hello, Sothy,
beautiful shot! The colors are fabulous, perfectly saturated with great light and contrast. The road leading in is excellent to add depth and I like the way it starts in the left corner. That truly is a beautiful place and you do it great justice with such a well presented shot. Many thanks and warm regards,
Shelly

Hi Sothy
I love the vivid colours and lively textures of this landscape. The sunshine has really brought out some rich tones and textures, and the road leads the eye in nicely to the more distant landscape. Even though there is no specific feature for the eye had to rest on, the photograph is very pleasing to look out.
Regards, Susanna

Hey Sothy,

Pic looks really good. I like the texture of the dirt road and how it zig-zags down the way. Not even close to the way I imagined Cambodia to look like. It resembles the Hill Country of TX.

Hi Sothy,
Hope you don't mind that i only take pictures and not rent a motorbike and rape the country side ;-)
Strong contrasting colours my friend, great use of the natural colours. The blue sky looks pp work, but whatever you did i like it.
Regards, Henk

Hi Sothy
I have never been in Mondolkiri, but the landscape is beautifull; It's interesting for me to see.
Beautifull green color contrasting with the red of the road.
Do you project a new trip in Cambodia ?
See you

Hi Sothy,
I remember Sen Monorom so well and I loved it there. The wide open spaces and the beautiful landscapes. I like the saturated colours here and the road leading us into the shot.
Regards
Wanda

Hi Sothy
I'M taking my time to write this with great respect because I’ve really enjoyed and learned much from looking at your photos through these couple of years. They inspired me in many ways.
Here is my honest critique. Fist of all, I commended you for posting this photo of a somewhat remote and beautiful area of Cambodia that most people rarely visit or know about. This is a fairly good photo, it shows the general serene landscape of the area; however, the color are oversaturated, especially the sky, it’s highly manipulated in photo editing program. I’m surprised that many of the members who wrote comment to you didn’t point it out except Henk.

Lovely landscape with good lead-in of the road and nicely saturated colours.

I do feel it could do with a focal point - I don't know what - a man and his ox-cart coming up the road? But it's very effective and perfectly composed, as usual.

Great view Sothy, the colours are incredible. You've really captured the greens and the blues perfectly. The dirt road really breaks up the bottom of the frame well.

Regards,
David

I'm trying to figure out how I ever missed this picture. It is SO BEAUTIFUL!!! I must add this to my favorites. I love that red soil and the road leading into this FABULOUS scenery. TFS
