A calm evening at Halong Bay. And then you kinda figure out there is nothing much to do at night except to sleep. :) Taken with Canon Powershot G9.

Must be great to be here, feel the night coming on a boat in this mythic bay.

This is fabulous - the colors and the reflections and the twinkling of the lights - all perfect!!! Did you use any filters or processing to come up with this amazing blue?
22 Sep 2008 6:58pm
@willow: Just the built-in ND filter function on the G9. Other than that, it was just mounting it on a tripod, and hope for the best. Oh, and the HDR processing brought out the blue as well :)

beautiful capture Nicholas - I like the blue of the evening light contrasted with the warmth of the orange, and all the reflections and symmetries.
