[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The first rays of the day shine into your room. You sense that the morning has arrived, it's about time for breakfast. To ascertain the new dawn, you pull the curtains aside, and this scene lies in front of your eyes. Waking to this, would you settle for anything else?

I spent a night in Halong Bay with my wife and had the great fortune to witness this fantastic sight. Indeed, every minute seemed to pass with different mesmerizing views. If you haven't been there, maybe this shot is alluring enough.

Hi Kean,
Very nice. I will be there in 6 weeks from now and looking with great interest to these pictures. The place sounds and looks magical, just as you show in your picture. The mood with the soft light in the background makes the whole scenery complete.
Very nice picture, looking forward to see this myself.
Regards, Henk

Great shot of this famous place. This really shows the multiple levels of rock formations, because of the quality of light that makes the ones farther away looked lighter or faded out. Having those boats in the foreground is a good touch too, adding a lot of interest and human context to the scene. Well done!

Hi Kean!
Beautiful shot! I guess you captured the magic of the place. Good light and silhuettes. I especially like these two boats in foreground.
