Kelong Sunrise

Hi all,

Here's my first attempt at "scenery". Comments, critique welcome. Camera used is a Canon A75.

interesting view, the sky colour can be further enhanced by underexposed ard 1-stop imo.

nice but horizon is slanted and exposure is slightly too bright

In addition to the stuff above

I feel that the hut on the right should be in full (not cropped)
and if you wait for someone to walk by, it would be great.

But it is a nice picture, where is this?

Thanks for helpful comments all. Really appreciate and will experiment more. I should have taken more shots with different exposure settings. The place is one of 2 kelongs I go to in Bintan once in a way to relax.

Re cropping hut off - couldn't help it as this was the furthest spot away from the scene where I could stand to get the picture, and was already using widest angle available on camera. But I take the point.

Location is no secret, let me know if any of you want contact details, I'll get them for you. I just don't have them off hand as I usually go with a friend.

Meanwhile here is another more recent attempt at the 2nd kelong, about a km away. This time, camera is Olympus C750. Again, comments welcome.
