Not the Country I remember "M-T". I am very happy Vietnam has become prosperous. Where is the temple located? I served in the far north of the then South Vietnam.
Wonderful images.

Thanks!
Yeah, I know someone who visited Vietnam about nine years ago. She was telling me about Hanoi and it's DRASTICALLY different now than "back then." Same thing goes for Sapa and I imagine most of the country.
The temple was located in Hue. Central Vietnam, about two hour train ride from Da Nang.

Ming, first 2 are very nice and agree with you for third image.
Thanks! Also, VERY lovely images of Lofoten in the other thread. I was there two years ago. Three-week road trip from Tromso and back. Such a wonderful country. I loved that the hikes weren't difficult at all but the views at the top were amazing.

I recognized it almost immediately. Even after 58 years!
Thanks!

Beautiful night scenes, however image #1 stands out for me due to the impressive temple in Hue but also the cleanliness of the image.
Image #2 on my display, lacks sharpness in the lights, mostly of the bridge. Image #3 has too many reflections and lack of sharpness of the light stars which leads to a very busy image.

Thanks for the feedback!
With regards to #2, what do you think might be the cause of that? Since only a portion of the image lacks sharpness, I am thinking it's more gear-related than technique? Or maybe I needed to stop down a bit more to get everything sharp? Just trying to think if I could've done anything different. From what I remember, I took this picture on a rocky surface on the river. And all the lights (e.g. bridge, dragon, etc.) were constantly changing/moving.
With regards to #3, I see your point about the lack of sharpness with the light stars. I assume you mean by "lack of sharpness," you mean non-defined edges. I wonder if that's a lens issue.

They look good! Flares are a little accentuated, but there's only so much you can do there. I would be interested to see how the first image looks as a standard 2x3.
