Hi Andre,
Ohhh..I love the blue hour. The reflections and the smooth tones out of long exposure is great. Had it been any other time of the day it would not have been so great as it is represented now.
Great work

Hello Andre - Your shot encapsulates peace: perfect for the subject matter. The calm blues of sky and water, the soft reflections and the finely captured detail in the pagoda all add up to a beautiful image. Have a good day and best regards Rosemary

Hello Andre
Lovely place. A pagoda on a island. They have to use a boat in the old days to reach their place of prayers. The reflections on the water makes a nice scene too

Ah, je vois que je ne suis pas le seul a faire parfois des compositions 50-50 avec l horizon. Je suis déçu, je pensais trouver un commentaire en ce sens, mais personne ne s est encore lancé. Patience :-)
C est peut etre surprenant, mais j aime bien la moto et les amoureux becoteurs sur le bord droit. Ca donne de la vie a ce paysage, une autre façon d en profiter :-)

Chapeau bas à l'artiste et au spécialiste des heures bleues.
Bravo !

Dear Andre!
Simply beautiful! You - the masater of blue hour have effectively nailed this picture brilliantly! exposure on the pagoda with the artificial light falling on two sides look great! Lead-in well created, what I particularly like is everything except the pagoda structures are in dark silhouette, giving them prominence!
Best Regards
Angshuman
