Day's end reflection Photo

Photographer’s Note

Taken from one of the local ports in Talim Island located in Laguna de Bay, the largest lake in the Philippines. The coastal villages of the island make their living through fishing the freshwaters of the lake. No post processing done except the stitching of two photos using Canon PhotoStitch.

I did another sunset theme which I think is much better. I hope you can take a look at it here.

Great colors and reflections you've captured here Emer. Plus the boats make the pic more interesting. Funny how Laguna de Bay can look very different when taken during sunset. Good work!

Hi Emer,
Nice Sunset. I like color. Just well saturated and pastel.

Very good!

Fantastic sunset! I'm so envious of not ever capturing such beautiful sky scene here in the Philippines. And amazing stitching job, it's seamless!

Beautiful sunset and nice reflection. Agree with alford's comment. Havent seen Laguna de Bay in this perspective, quite a tranquil shot. Good job!

Pleasant picture and a calm moment after a long day, great place you chose. The panorama format is excellent, well done.

Very good composition and crop.
The boatelements, not in silhouette but still enough visible, on the left side give it depth but do not disturb the wide view on the horizon. The reflections in the water are alive with the small waves still in it. I really like this one!

Btw: one of the pano-methods I use when making pan photo's is to make them all portrait. It gives the photo more hight and stiching can still be done, you only have to make some photos more.

The tranquility of the place was best captured on this photo. Definetely one of your best seller for me :)

Good 'reflection' shots are often best composed with the horizon bisecting the centre of the frame - which is exactly what you have done here. Terrific work, Emer - well done, and a nice capture of a beautiful sight.
