Ha Long Bay, a photo from Hai Phong, Red River Delta

Photographer's Note

Ha Long Bay consists of a dense cluster of 1,969 limestone monolithic islands, each topped with thick jungle vegetation, which rise spectacularly from the ocean. Several of the islands are hollow, with enormous caves. Hang Đầu Gỗ (Wooden stakes Cave) is the largest grotto in the Halong area.

This picture is taken many times before, i hope you don't mind that i post mine too.

Hi Gee Hoo,

Good panaromoic shot. Good colours and use of the DOF. Like the way, the cliffs emerge "into" the photo with the boats accentuating the height of the cliffs.

Informative note.

The plants at the bottom left are slightly distracting.

Gee,
This is a great photo with nice color and lighting. Your composition is very nice including the colorful boats with the wonderful scenery. To bad you didn't have a sunny day, but you can't have everything!
TFS,
Asa
