[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This was taken during sunset in Brunei's oil-rich district, Kuala Belait. No filter was used, hence the huge contrast between the dark foreground and the bright sky.

Welcome to TL. Great colours through the image. It does look a little grainy though. Great composition though. Thanks for sharing.

Hi Shahminan
It is a glorious picture with firey red yellow river and sky. It in fact looks like a painting done in vibrant passionate colours.
Great first posting. Look forward to many more of such

First, you have a great moment and great sunset to capture. But...the execution is not really good :D

First, it will be better if you decide which part you would like more. Is it the dramatic sky or is it the FG. So you can go for a composition from that. And it will be better if you put that boat in full as it was an importain focal poin in this piture. And I thought you increase the brightness a little too much make it lack of contrast :D
