Happy New Year Trekkies!

My last posting of the year 2007, which was a special year for me here on TrekLens. Met several Trekkies in “real life” :-) And a met Trekkies not only in my home country but also met some of you outside the Netherlands, in Belgium, England and even in Cambodia, making new friends. Yes it was a special year. May I thank you all for visiting and critiquing my postings here on TL, I feel really flattered by all the attention given by you my fellow Trekkies! All those constructive and grateful critiques and comments; it makes me really humble.

So wish you all wonderful and healthy sunrises in the new year 2008. It’s my last posting of 2007, so this is not a sunrise but a sunset, taken in Angkor (Cambodia) on top of the temple mountain looking over the plains near Siem Reap, see also [map:view] for the precise position.

Enjoy the view and meet you in 2008 again.

PP-work:

Adjusted contrast, brightness and saturation. Increased brightness of the darker layer extra. Removed cropped, resized and sharpened, add frame and text.

Hello Hansie!!!!!!!
I wish you the very best for New Year - it is nice to have you here as a friend:):):)
This post is last one for 2007 and accenting that fact very clearly - good idea. About picture itself? - good technically and very interesting as a landscape theme:):):)
Thank you for your good work and this special wishes for us!

Gr, Jacqueline

Hello Hans,

Marvelous photograph! Congratulations!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Sergio

Heel mooi Hans !
Niet alleen de zon met de lucht, maar vind ook de rotsen hun tekening speciaal :
nog net zichtbaar.

Ook voor jou m'n beste wensen voor 2008 Hans !

Groetjes
Jan

Happy New Year, Hans,
I wish you all the best, a lot of new travelling adventures and new friends all over the globe.
Although a part of the temple is shown on the photo, it is actually the sunset that attracts my attention. It is the main subject, isn't it? :) The moment is very well captured, and the combination of the colours of the blue sky and orange sunset among the fancy clouds makes the image really fascinating.
Regards,
Evgenia :)

Hallo Hans..

Eine wunderschones Tag...und alles gute..
Nice Picture..

My time of day would be sunset, Hans ;o)). Beautiful scenery, I thought this would have been taken in the US... but I'm wrong. A true beauty.

Wonderful sunrise Hans. Nicely framed by the vegetation and the ruins, good colour and lovely detail. All the best for 2008,
David
