Hello Angshuman.
Another fine shot from you...Again, I must state that the colors that you capture in your photos are quite distinctive...I guess, not the colors, but the cast...a sort of crispness. Anyhow, fantastic. The bits of temple present in this shot sit out very well against the blue of the sea below. A nice crop also to use the branches on the left as a balance to the expanse of the sea.
Regards,
Chris.

Hello Angshu,
A beautiful beach scenery from Bali!
An attractive diagonal composition, where the foreground interest is captured with great details...
Lovely view of the blue sea, where the small surf keep rolling in!
Greetings,

Hi Angshuman. Interesting note that gives greater significance to what we are seeing. Even without the note one can still marvel at the choice of site for a temple.- looking into infinity, where sky meets the sea. Beautiful colours of the sea and rich earthy tones of the bricks used for the construction of the temple. nice PoV that allows us to see some details of the temple and even the dark volcanic sand of the beach.Well done. Regards. Klaudio.

Hi Angshuman

Wonderful color of the turquoise sea, contrasting against the warm reds of the fg roof & brick structure, with a superb high pov & excellent sharpness. Tfs!

Olá Angshu, looking at your previous one of this place, I can see exactely from where you took this photo. Interesting that there's few or none tourists here: it's better to feel the beauty of the place and with such a sight, our thoughts can fly far away...I like your "L" framing, which goes well with these feelings that I just described. I guess that I wouldn't see the shrine if you didn't mentioned it. Lovely place to empty our head ;-)
Have a nice week,
Ricardo

Bonjour, mon ami Angshu,
Une partie du temple avec une sculpture qui dirige notre regard sur les vagues semblables à des moutons venant s'échouer doucement sur la grève.
Le ciel et la mer forment un joli camaïeu de bleu.
Très belle et très intéressante prise de vue.
Amitiés.

Dear Angshu,
A temple so close to the sea, reminiscent of Mahabalipuram although the architecture and brick structure is different. Well framed with the trees which not only provides a sense of depth but adds a different shade of colour.
Well Done!
Best Wishes

Very beautiful colours. the red of the temple combined with the blue of the sea work so well together. The trees add lots of depth. very well done.

Hi Angshu,
fine glimps of a temple with the full attention at its magnifienst situation in the form of the turquoise ocean view.
Great work.

Hi Angshuman,

A nice photo of the shrine and of the sea where someone can enjoy the quietness and the beauty of the place. The photo has a good composition, DOF and nice colors. Thanks for sharing.

You're right Angshu, I don't think this site gets many visitors, I also missed it, since I wasn't aware of it. You obtained a pleasant shot here too, well composed and nice colors, although the previous one was really spectacular. Regards, Daniel

Hi Angshuman,
Great composition, I like the way of doing the setting, with a part of the temple and the vegetation off-centre, in foreground, and the splendid sea with the white striping that the foam of the waves draws in the rest of the picture, with a nice graphism.
It is a beautiful photo, my friend.
Best regards,
Josep

Hi Angshu
Great 'paradise' scene here. Before reading the notes I thought this is some kind of holiday resort with traditional, 'ruined' decoration! To build a temple here is really cool you took this picture very well with perfect horizon and good contrasting elements in a nice frame, tfs.
Cheers

Hello Angshuman,
this is a beautiful mix of the vegetation that grows over this beach and the beach itself with the small waves breaking slowly. I like a lot the graphic effect that the branchs create on foreground, the digonal created by the beach and open view over the sea on the right side of the photo.
Cheers.

More sea than temple here, but this time you had an excellent weather with both blue sky and blue sea (the sea color is closely related to the sky color, as you know). I like the very white waves, and the vegetation of the left.

All the best,

Emmanuel

Hi Angshuman,

I love the way everything sits so naturally into the environment and your composition.
The left side framing of the near greenery and branches is really nice .. the line from the corner of the balcony to the shrine is very effective as well. You certainly have communicated the tranquility of this place ..

Hi angshu,
It is a lovely place for a temple. As sabyasachi notes, the trees and the temple provide a wonderful frame for the sea. HLJ, Pat

Hello Angshu,
When I saw the compo it reminds me straight away of the other one "Temple by the sea". I like the POV showing the vastness of the ocean and the part of the temple in FG. A well balanced image...

Hi Angshu - what an awe inspiring setting for a temple, the breaking patterns of the waves fill the sea nicely, the vegetation gives it an almost lost in the jungle atmosphere.

Hello friend
It pleases the panoramic one to me that is reflected from the POV that you took.
The surge on the sand, emphasizes a beautiful composition, plenty of light, details and clarity. The marine horizon is united very appropriately with the sky, and the details to the left complement an excellent scene

Must be a cool place. I'm surprised the beach seems so small (because of the tide ?). Good pov and sea mood.
