stunning work. The LIGHT, its so beautiful. I mean the view is good, its always going to be there but its the light you got, or rather chose, that floods this work with magic. Its like a painting really.

Lieber Andreas ! This is absolutely magic and goes beyond, and I am so glad you got up to show us this. Wonderful the remaining fog lingering in the palm trees ... feels like being on another planet, in another world ... like a fairy tale. Happy Christmas to you (I guess it is not too late to say this), Barbara.

Hello Andreas -

What a beautiful image! You are right, getting up early can lead one to marvelous images like this one. I like how the morning light highlight the temple and the fog/mist accentuates the scene and adds an air of mystery. The exposure, composition, DOF, etc, etc are spot on. Excellent image! Well done!

Thank you for sharing

Hello, Andreas--
This is an incredible shot, the brilliant orange of the pagoda contrasts well with the green of the trees, and the natural spotlight on it is great. The mist adds a strong mood to the scene, also.
Thanks!

You have posted already 2 very beautifull picture from your recent trip in Myanmar.
I like the light and the smoke around the stupas. It's so typical.
I was in Mrauk Ou the 9 and 10 december. Maybe we have cross together in the same places. I have seen a german group in this place. Maybe you was there !
Beautifull place really.

Hello Andréas, more still than a good framing this image releases a nostalgia of this place lost with this exposure or the fog grows more still this impression of loneliness or bathes this splendid building embraced by a shaving luminosity, the way in which you manage to play with these ranges of light and colour is rather extraordinary, it is a splendid image, Merry Christmas and better want

I don't know how I've missed this amazing photo until now! BUT better late than never.
I'm sure there's nothing different I can say about it; the light is incredible and it was certainly worth getting up early, for the mist as well as the light. Of course your high POV was essential and the off-centre composition of the pagoda perfect. First-class work.

What a place & what a shot! Amazing colour tones heightened by the early morning light as the low mist hug the landscape. Contrast is superb with the earthy colours of the Schwedaung Pagoda contrasting with the greens. I hope you post a large version shot of Mrauk U, it definitely would be fantastic..& what about a travelogue?
Wishing you the very best for 2007

Hello Andreas,
wonderful picture... so full of mystical presence. I like it very much. I've always dreamed about making this kind of photo and never succedded... but last week, nearly at 4.00 PM it happened. I saw solitary trees on the hill, some houses with smoke from the chimney, few layers of hills and all in wonderful low sun backlight... but we were in a hurry to the doctor's visit. The doctor said everything is O.K. but I was without a picture. But only until today... now I put yours in my favourites gallery, so I can look at it everytime I want to ;)))

Happy new year to you and your family.

Wir hatten Glück und Pech zugleich mit dem Wetter, es war bedeckt und ein wenig regnerisch. Das jedoch war positiv, denn bei den angenehmen Temparaturen konnten wir gerade in Bagan sehr viel besichtigen (ohne uns die Fußsohlen zu verbrennen ;-)
Vielen Dank für diesen Augenschmauß, herzliche Grüße - und nimm' mich doch mit zurück nach Myanmar!

la photo magique.
On se demande si on admire une photo ou alors une peinture, mais quel que soit le cas, le résultat est fabuleux.
Cette petite pagode ressort très bien avec ses couleurs de feu, le soleil semble ne vouloir illuminer qu'elle, elle surgit de la brume.

Excellent travail.

Hi Andreas,

A wonderful image with the mysterious atmosphere. This morning fog confers on the landscape a very beautiful softness, it is very pleasant to look at. A perfect management of the light and colors in fact an extraordinary photograph of beauty. Cheer and superb work.

With all my friendships and a very good year 2007.

This place looks so magical with the sun just perfectly lighting up the pagoda and the wispy clouds in amongst the vegetation. Everything looks so harmonious.

Hi Leo, already seen it almost 10 times this picture ... At least.
A TREMENDOUS PICTURE, surely the best ever post from of myanmar of those temples.
Considering the large amount of pictures posted from that kind, this is a true compliment.
All my congratulations, you deserve at least 300 points for that stuff

Good point of view.
Very well done indeed!

I don't exaggerate when I say this is my favorite photo from Trekearth so far. I find the shape of Burmese pagodas so alluring to begin with, and this is placed in a magical context. You have perfectly exposed the misty surrounds and they are highly evocative of mystery and mystique. Then there is the beautiful contrast of green on the deep rust colored pagoda and earth. Delightful, thank you for making the effort.

Beautiful light and mood, wonderful depth and feel - this is an image that I would be very proud to have in my gallery. Cheers . . . David

I can't imagine what it feels like to see this scenery "for real" but I am pretty certain it must be overwhelming. This place looks so mysterious and inviting at the same time! It could also well be a painting...

Hello Andreas,

How can I critique such a picture if all I can use are some words and a smiley? I bet everyone would dream about taking such a photo!
The composition is excellent! You placed the pagoda in one of the strongest point of the picture and the warm sunrise light falls in the same place! The mists in the valleys create a great, mysterious atmosphere. It seems that every detail is a witness of the century long history in those places!
The distribution of the color saturation also favors the pagoda and the area around it! Sorry I can only award you two points! Very well done! Thank you!

With Friendly Regards,
Eddie

Your Myanmar shots are stunning. It seem that the country inspired you to raise your photography to another level. The clouds/mist in this shot add a lot of mood but the lighting on the actual stupa itself helps to just pick it out in the busy frame. GREAT!

Hello Leo,

I enthusiastically join the chorus of admirers of this remarkable shot. The composition and perspective, the interplay of light and shadow, and the colors and definition are spectacular. The amorphos quality of the fog serves as a counterpoint to the well define image of the temple complex. This is a surreal image, but the note is informative enough to make it real.

Well done,

Bulent

This is so beautiful Leo,¨that it is hard to believe it is real. I was also at Bagan some 10 years ago¨but was not able to capture this kind of unreal beauty. May be I should include Mrauk U in my next Myanmara expedition.
