[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Early one morning, very early, we left Mandalay for Amarapura, to visit the famous U Bein bridge. Like everywhere else in Myananmar where we went, people seemed to have gotten up long ago and were well into their work by sunrise. The photo was taken from the bridge.

By the time we reached this point the sun was rather high and strong already, hence the shutter speed of 400 with an F-Stop at 7.1

PP: Cropped, added some light, re-sized and framed

Thank you for visiting.

Warm colors and atmosphere. Nice work Cordelia. My best wishes to you and your country. Thanks to shear in TL.

Hi Cordelia, it is good to see you post more often :) this is a beautiful shot that you took under difficult conditions.. I like the "golden trail" behind the boats, I tried to reduce the effects of sunny and misty conditions with a little ws, I hope it is ok with you... thanks, have a good one :)

Avery good morning mood expressed beautifully. The mist creates a feeling of relaxation that comes after a good night's sleep.

Hi Cordelia, while Alaettin's workshop is good it has introduced some noise in the mists at the treeline. A lovely soft image, well composed and lovely colour tones. Excellent foreground detail and nicely framed. TFS,
David

Many thanks for your comment on ' Honey Bee’

Amit

Donna:o)


thanks for your comments on my photo "ice storm" :o)
For you question..an ice storm is just that...it rains in freezing temperatures so the water freezes on contact..not nice.lots of power outages from downed powerlines.

A hazy morning scene has been nicely captured in this image which depicts a high level of atmospheric humidity. Golden hue of rising sunlight is looking fantastic along with a canoes which are adding life to perspective. A beautiful take Cordelia, well done.

Thanks for sharing this image.

Mustique and soft silver light. Wellcaptured Cordelia.. pleasure to see! Are you both well?
When is the next trip to France?? TFS and a virtual tulip for this nice photo.

Hi Cordelia,

Very nice image, I adore this soft lighting/tone... it really sets the image in a specific mood. Quiet... and smooth. I like this, especially with that slight flicker of gold on the water. The distance is beautiful, especially because of that soft purple colour... everything is very watered down... looks fantastic. The boats really make the picture... well done.

Biance.

HI Cordelia!
Amazingly beautiful photo, nice chooice of POV and compo, I like the warm hue color and well managed light, great job!

hello Cordelia,
this is a strong emotive image.
Good atmospheric feeling.
Impressive monochromatic quality to it and I like the shimmering light on the water surface.

Very inspiring, the golden light is splendid, I remember of such colours in Burma and long to return there... Bravo,
Cath.
