sunset vs moonrise Photo

Photographer’s Note

Sorry,I do`nt know the name of this temple,but looking at the date,taken,it must be somewhere in Mrauk U.
The last rays of the sun illuminate the top of the temple,while the moon is already visible.
Have a nice sunday!

Hallo Andreas,
Danke für dises Foto und de vielen anderen interessanten Posts. Würde mann den politischen Hintergrund nicht kennen, würde mann Burma glatt für ein Märchenland halten.
Grüsse aus Luxemburg, Mike

Hi Leo,

interesting shot. The way the tower is emphasised in the frame with that blue background shows that this POV coudn't be better. The usual sharpness treatment and color management are still there. Great one!
Regards,
Carlos

Hi, Leo. There is a nice diagonal line between the moon and the temple here. The gilded spire stands out very well against the blue sky. The light is very good.

josepmarin (34107) 2007-09-16 12:55

Hallo Leo,
Simply beautiful, this photo needs few words to value it, I like the strong contrast between the top of this temple and the blue sky, with the presence of the moon.
The image has a high quality, a perfect lighting and a few very beautiful colors.
Great work, my friend.
Best regards,
Josep

Hi Leo,
I appreciate your honesty "sorry i don't know the name of the temple". It happens to me sometimes as well, while getting lost in photography sessions. You find somewhere very impressive and take photos thereof and forget to learn what the place exactly is. No problem, let's say it is any of those golden temples of Myanmar. Your selecive cadrage, technical quality and the idea of including the moon are already worth appreciation. TFS,
Deniz

Love the POV from below catching the golden tower wanting to reach the sky and the moon there. Beautiful!

Hallo Andreas,
da war doch noch einer, den ich mir in Ruhe anschauen wollte, dieser hier. Hübsche Komposition mit dem Mond, schade, das selbiger nicht schärfer wollte, aber das wäre wohl zuviel verlangt. Gute Oberflächenabbildung und schöner Blick auf all die Glocken.
Lieben Gruss, Ulf

Hello Andreas,
Really nice putting on the same frame the sunlight and the moon starting to gain its place on that day. The golden tones and the blue colours of the sky contrast nicelly here, also the details of the temple's tower are very good.
Cheers.
