Sunset at Song Kul Photo

Photographer’s Note

Hi Everyone,

Thanks a lot for your comments on the previous version of this photo! Unfortunately, I'm afraid I removed them by reposting the photo in a bigger format.
You made some suggestions for changing the colours, but I decided not to adapt them - because the photo is showing the scene just the way it was (i.e. quite dark and quite yellow). Rotating the image might be a good idea, since the skyline is not horizontal now...

Best regards
Jasminka

I love photos from this area. Especially with this dark weather and bit of sun shine from a site.. I would be maybe place the huts bit lower, however it is lovely shot. L.

The composition is simple but very nice. I like the picture very much. Thanks for sharing.

doesn't need rotation as the person in the front is just ok, on horizontal ground. the pic is great and evokes the great distances and spaces of central asia. I don't like heavily edited photos so ...it's ok the way it is :)

Greetings,
I just love this shot-for the lighting, minimalistic composition, and evocative nature. The contrast between the light and dark is wonderful.
My compliments!
I must visit this area.
