[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Yesterday I made my common mistake. Developing the RAW in adobe Light Room and finsishig it in PS CS3. Here I work in de RGB color domain to have at much colours as posible. But for treklens we use sRGB. The Potala palace turn out to dark.
Here we see a peacefull Tibet. But the view on the palace is already ruined by the Chinse.
In the past there was a lake in front of the palace. No a modern square and water organ. And a momument for the liberation of Tibet. How can you brutaly occupy a peacefull country where the population peacefully prayed and worked for over 900 years to free there own sole.
China free your own sole and occupy your mind with good intentions.

Hoi Ruud,
Doordat je op deze foto de straatlantaarns laat zien, vind ik de sfeer net iets gemoedelijker en mooier dan op je plaat van gisteren.
Wat is het een magistraal gebouw he? werkelijk prachtig. enneh.... je hebt het heel mooi vastgelegd.

Gr.,
Anneke

Hallo Ruud
In een woord prachtig.
Gr Jos

Beautiful image of the Potala, just maybe corrected perspective.
The light and the colors are beautiful. I think it's always difficult to photograph these great urban spaces.
But you have done a good job.

Thx.

Hi Ruud,

Very clear night shot. I like the way you captured this well known place and also the note. TFS

Best regards,
Sorina

The colours just jump out of this photo. It does look very peaceful. Amazing building. The clarity is brilliant.
