River Reflection Photo

Photographer’s Note

Walking along the Mergong river which flows through Alor Star is a very peaceful experience, if it would not be so hot. There are very picturesque spots like this one. At the other side of river is a traditional settlement of fishermen. During monsoon their homes can be flooded, but they are used to it

Hi Urs,

You have covered all the ingredients in this tall frame shot. The murky water with handsome foliage in the fg. The view across is just brilliant against the beautiful sky.

Well done and TFS.

Regards,
Jusni

Hallo Urs,
A very picturesque place, which we can enjoy in this good framing, in a very harmonic composition with a specially attractive luminosity.
I like the graphical game that there offer us the shades of the big tree in foreground.
It is a nice work, with a good technical execution.
Best regards,
Josep

Wonderfully framed by the trees above and the reflections below. In light this bright, I'm thinking this shot may be a little dark maybe? Thanks, Judy

The river looks extremely dirty but the picture is beautiful.
The tree branches are very dramatic and interesting and by including the reflection you got it here twice, every time with different colors. Very nice composition which makes a simple subject very interesting.

Hello Urs
One of the interesting aspects of this shot is that we have a shadow 7 reflections both on the river water. I like the framing done here with the web like shadow of the tree in the FG & alos how the tree frames the houses on the other bank. A bit of contrast & sharpness would make this even better IMO. Well done!

HI,
Great POV. Very well composed to highlight the reflection! A otherwise very ordinary river scene being converted to a very interesting one because of your composition. TFS

Hi Urs,
beautiful spot along the river. the shadows of the branches give a good graphic effect. Should the water more clear, than what a wonderful world.
the sky adds element of dramatic.

regards,
Foozi
