The centerpiece of this image is the almost completed The River Condominium. According to the developer's website: "At over 250 metres in height The River will be one of Bangkok's tallest structures, and a new world class icon of waterfront living. On one side of each tower, an elegant curved glass façade arcs majestically above the water; on the other, straight sides and deep articulations provide architectural interest and a very contemporary feeling."

To the right is the Peninsula Hotel and the left is Taksin Bridge which also has the skytrain extension running over it.

Tonemapped 7 exposures in Photomatix Pro 4.1; I couldn't resist pushing the colors a wee bit; hope it doesn't look too unnatural.

I was lucky with the sunset (for a change) as it was a one-off chance to shoot from my location!

The Royal Bangkok Sports Club is located on Henri Dunant Road in Bangkok. It was founded in 1901 under the patronage of His Majesty King Chulalongkorn (Rama V). The club offers a wide variety of sports-related services and facilities including a 9 hole golf course and horse racing track.

This green space is located almost in the center of modern Bangkok and unfortunately it is reserved for the city's elities. Plebs are only allowed in for horse racing twice a month in season: www.cnngo.com/bangkok/play/binoculars-and-cigarettes-day-...

Hilton Millennium Hotel in the center with its cool bar (360) on the roof top (not revolving) and it's James Bond -style lift in front of the building. The light trail on the water is from a shuttle boat. Single RAW exposure.

Taken from Sky Bar at lebua Hotel, Bangok. You may recognize this particular bar from the movie "The Hangover Part II". Most of the panoramic skyline shots of Bangkok in the movie were taken form this vantage point. This venue bans tripods, so its hand-held with camera resting on the railing.

One of Bangkok's busiest thoroughfares on a Friday evening.
