Two Chickens Rocks, a photo from Quang Ninh, North East

Photographer's Note

These two rocks are called the two chickens or alternatively the Kissing Rocks for obvious reasons. They are just two of several thousand islands in the Halong Bay are, off the delta area of the Red River.

Hi Murray,
You captured nice details, and I like the way you don't centeralize the rocks .The fog (or due to the hot weather? ) adds a magical atmosphere to the image.
Congrats and a Happy New Year,
Zeynep

Hi Murray,
Very interesting natural phenomenon! The rocks are captured well enough to see the details of multicolored vegetation on them. Very well done!
Best regards,
Sergiy

Hello Murray,
Despite the cyan cast I like this interesting picture. In a workshop I removed that cast but kept the foggy look of the background and boosted a little the chicken rocks to give some more depth, at least in my opinion but you tell me what you think about...
Regards,
Guy

Hi Murray,

The point of view is showing the details and colors of the Kissing Rocks. The subject is well frame. The picture is clear and sharp. The light has a good effect on the colors of the scenery. All the best for the Year 2009.
