Hi Elaine, I see we are neighbours today- and strangely enough images of the same theme- but many miles away.. A beautifully framed image of these huts on the wonderful tranquill waters and lovely reflections.. Have a great day Rich

PS I love the banter on TE

Dear Elaine!
The frame work is perfect & you perfectly know that :-)
I would believe that your cottage would be similar to what we can see from the window. The light has been brilliantky caught!
Best Regards

PS : I read the couple of crtqs you had written for couple of my pix especially by 6th anniversary shot! Well...these crtqs disappeared but I was lucky to have read them before the disappearing act :-)

Hi Elaine.
This one is really superb; not only a stunning composition but sharp throughout the depth. A very good use of the wide angle to frame the cottages as you did, and choosing to place them centre frame was the right decision. Wonderful ethereal reflection and excellent light and shadow on the wooden frame. Brilliant. What a calming scene.
Regards,
Andrew

Hi Elaine

Good use of the fg fence as a frame. Excellent sharpness & graphism. I love the strong warm vs cold colour contrasts between the yellow green, red & blue. Nice symmetrical reflections too. Tfs!

Hello Elaine,
I've seen photos of these cottages before, but never with such wonderful framing. The lighting is beautiful, and so is the reflection in the lake. The wood frame in the foreground compliments the natural colors so perfectly. Very well-seen and presented.

HI Elaine!
What a great shot,and yes you are right!!!!
The light in Burma is magic and I prefer the the sunset light.
This is a wonderful composition with the GIC bungalows framed by this wooden fence/balustrade.Great POV and an excellent result.
I`m looking foreward to the election in Myanmar,while I`ll be in Indonesia in april/may.
Have a great weekend,
Leo

Very pleasing photograph. The DOF, clarity and exposure are simply remarkable. the frame brilliantly provides the leading lines to the main subject.

Hi Elaine,

A charming composition and POV lookig through the opening of the window toward the bungalows, like a rustic and natural frame. Beautiful warm morning golden light. It looks so charming and inviting. Just beautiful with perfect reflection of the cottages on the lake.

The pure clean light and the reflections are nice plus.
