Hi Sothy,

You’ve captured a very nice and photogenic moment. I like the tree in silhouette and the way the lamp fills perfectly the empty space in a very beautiful and balanced way.

A very well controled exposure and brilliant colours. Nice job!

Hi Sothy,
Beautiful colors, clouds really have a central role in this picture. The branch and the light post are only framing their beauty.

Allô Sothy!
Merveilleuse photo et superbes couleurs. On pourrait dire que c'est la lampe qui éclaire le ciel mais ce n'est pas le cas. Excellente composition et j'aime bien la silhouette de l'arbre.
Félicitations!... et bonne semaine,

Hi Sothy!
Wow! That is a great one. You have really captured the colors well, and the look of the clouds is natural. And the sillouette of the tree really works well. I am a big fan of clouds, and I am always looking at them. In fact in Cambodia, they were the best I'd seen in all of Asia....I don't know why. I find taking sunsets really difficult, either the ISO is too high, or I need a tripod etc. Anyway....you really got a natural looking shot here. Great job, take care,
Steve

Hi Sothy,
Fantastic colours.The variation of colour and its saturation is top-class.Lovely use of the silhoutte of tree up-front and the lamp-post fits just perfectly to the other side.The sky really is in amazing shape.But the lamp-post seems to be tilted a bit to its right,could have been straightened.

Hi Sothy,
It seems you have a kind of trademark with great cloud formations in the sky, i like that a lot. This tiome a very colourful one with really excellent light in it. I like how you used the lantarn and the tree in the composition, it really works perfect in combination with that sky...wonderful..!!!

Hi Sothy,
Without a doubt, it's the colourful photo of the week. I love how the 4 elements (sky, tree, lantern and sunburst) interact between each other. I'm not fond of photgraphs of sunset (too common, difficult to create something original), but I must say here that it's a delightful moment for the eyes.

Hi Sothy! Great catch, scenes like this can disappear in a moment, you captured it at the right time. The lamp and the branches are important elements in the photo, very wise to include them. The colors and sharpness are very eye-catching. Very good work also on the exposure - you achieved to show us the beauty of this moment. rgds.

• ben4321 (9426)
• [2006-12-14 6:50]

Wonderful light and colours here Sothy, and I like the way the golden colour of the lamp echoes that of the clouds.
I find that the placement of the lampost and tree make for a nicely balanced image, and their inclusion makes for a more interesting shot than if you had just photographed the sky without them.

Good work.
Cheers,
Ben

Hello my friend,

this is a really fine image with some fantastic colours and well controlled. The lamp is a fine addition and for me it would work just as well with or without the tree. A superb image, well seen.

Good eye,you did a great composition.
You created a very interresting sunset whose colors are the same as the lamppost,as if it was originating from the lamppost itself.

Hey Sothy,

what a beautiful composition here. But as you know from the 90 points, Im not alone. Simple, but dramatic. 3 strong elements, 2 which balance each other and the third, the sky, giving us the drama. Fantastic colors.

really good composition with well balanced 'keepers'..the tree and the lamp
abscence of sun keeps the overall tones even avoiding too much exposure
