Photographer’s Note
The reason why Vang Vieng has sprung up as a tourist mecca in south east asia is the gorgeous Nam Song River and the magnificent karst limestone mountains lining it. The imposing structures rise up out of the land and run for kilometres, abutting pancake flat rice fields and the river. Stunning at any hour, the mountains are particularly beautiful with the golden pink glow of sunset behind them...

Hello Vincent,
Rain has overtime carved the limestone very well to create this interesting array of figures. The sunset look great in this setting as the river and cliffs create a very pleasant image. I can understan by looking at the image why people flock to this area. The views and natural beauty are exellent. Thanks Vincent.

Superbe contrejour. Le soleil est pris au bon moment juste avant qu'il ne disparaisse et le ciel est superbe. J'ai juste un peu hic avec un sharpening qui a créé un léger liseré blanc sur les crêtes des montagnes. Mais c'est encire assez léger

Magnificent capture of this sunset. The ranks of mountains are superbly exposed to show their distance. The sun is so well defined, and the sky is amazing. Even a few details like a roof of a hut on the shore are visible in the shadows. The atmosphere is warm and peaceful. The best shot of this Friday, for me.

Wow! Great job of capturing this sunset at Vang Vieng. I remember the sunsets there, but at the time I had my cheap camera. You have really got this one perfectly. The wonderful peaking of the sun as it just goes down, and the gorgeous yellow of the surrounding clouds....just perfect. I would be proud if this one was mine..hehe. cheers,

Those edges of the shaded hills to the right, edging the gradual blue, wonderful!! I mean, the sun is there, so the yellow orange tones are nice but expected. But those edges to the right and the various tones in the silouettes, the fact that you still see the foreground in front of that silouetted hills. Wonderful!!

OK, how did I miss seeing this one until now? Simply a stunning capture. You got the sun just at the right instant (if there was a 30-second window for this, that would be a long one), with great shades of lighting on the hills. Excellent positioning of diagonals and curves, too, topped off with the reflected light on the water.
A rare shot!

hi Vincent,
a nice image, with the golden colors of sunset with a superb sky on top of it.
The lake makes a good foreground too.

What a beautful shot here with the sunset. I love Vang Vieng and always wish to go back again soon. This shot even made me want to go sooner. Very romantic light in this shot. You also got the dramatic sky. Well done. Sothy

Bonjour Vincent
On ne peut qu'être en admiration devant un tel moment.Le soleil qui diffuse ses derniers rayons dans ce magnifique ciel et donne une presque transparence aux montagnes en arrière plan est de toute beauté.J'aime beaucoup et surtout le sentiment de sérénité que dégage cette photo.
Bonne journée
Amitiés
