Wonderful silhouette against the setting sun. A fave. 9/10 (from the Score Me!group)
Posted 47 months ago. ( permalink )

ok in and of itself this compositon is wonderful...and it just has a great feel to it...however, as is it appears to be a bit grainy and id like to see it larger...i really love the image but the quaility seems to be subpar...
Score 7.5/10 (from the Score Me!
group)
otherwise, a cleaner image would prob score 9.5 for me...great job

danielguip says:

Answer to Lester : you are perfectly right about the subpar quality. This is a quick scan of an old slide and I would need to have it better scanned.

I guess my only complaint would be that the disc is too close to the edge of the pic. Nice one!

Beautiful shot of a truly magical river. I think this really captures much of the atmosphere of certain tracts of the river.

Wow - first published picture...and WHAT a way to start! This is gorgeous. Don't know how the RAW file (if such a thing exists) would take to some slight over-exposing but this would be a worthy cover shot if it was just a touch lighter.

danielguip says:

Mark, thanks for the comment. Well... I need to rescan this slide, next on my list (I already scanned my old set from India and Vietnam will be soon).

No adjectives I know can describe this image! This shows the soul of Viet Nam in the way that very few pictures do.
Thanks for adding this outstanding image to the VIET NAM 5 group.
(PS. a sure "fave")

danielguip says:

@Snowriderguy and all others... Thanks a lot for comments and favoring. This is not nehanced in any way, but was taken on film in 1989. Some of theses effects seem to be impossible to capture with digital cameras.
