[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Ha Long (Descending Dragon)Bay is an amazing place especially during sunrise and sunset. I spent three days and two night on the boat. I took this shot very early morning just before the sunrise when I was looking out for dragons :)

Ha Long Bay is on The World Heritage List (UNESCO).
It is in the Gulf of Tonkin, includes some 1,600 islands and islets, forming a spectacular seascape of limestone pillars. Because of their precipitous nature, most of the islands are uninhabited and unaffected by a human presence. The site's outstanding scenic beauty is complemented by its great biological interest.

Beautiful sky with wonderful colours. We don't often see sunrise picture (I guess most of us are to lazy to get up early to capture it) but this one is spectacular. I like the silhouette of the mountains in the background and of the boats on the right. Well done!

Lovely panorama. Poster material.

Hi Skye, well photographed. I like especially the colours of the morning sky. Cheers!

Impossible to see those skys in our country or do I just have to wake up very early?
This is really breathtaking.

Incredible colours in your sky. Great composition.

Excellent photo with great colors and magnificant composition. Diagonal lines are always helpful. But the mood you presented is beautiful.
