Dongtan Beach is in Jomtien, not Pattaya.

No. Dongtan Beach is not in Jomtien.

Dongtan Beach is in Pratamnak!

You learn something every day or in this case you don't.

I suspect the OP means where are all the people?    For a seaside holiday town it looks dead.

They brought a dustpan to pick up after themselves.

I think this is the closest answer to the truth. The real truth is there is practically no "beach" left here on Dongtan BEACH. What an enormous pity that Pattaya's most peaceful and pastoral beach has been ruined by all that concrete. How very sad. WHAT are the city fathers thinking! Now it is gone forever.

Nothing to do with the white balance, and everything to do with the contrast difference by shooting into the sunset from the shaded side of the trees. The JPEG encoder is trying its best to deal with over-exposure in the skies and under exposure in the foreground, and defaulting to whatever is closest to (what is probably) centre weighted metering.

 

If you want the sunset and the trees, shoot obliquely from the sunlit side. If you only want the trees, shoot with the sunset at a slight angle over your shoulder, facing the trees from the other side. If you want the sunset, nix the trees, or use a camera that can do active-D lighting - we are talking pro-sumer level Nikon, Canon etc. - or a *powerful* flash to do fill-in (the built-in flash isn't going to be up to it) and then edit it in Lightroom to balance the contrast out.

 

If none of that makes sense, do a photography course.

I prefer the rubbish answer.

The once beautiful and environmentally functional old-growth forest is missing.

They are thinking of where to spend the kickbacks from the contractor.

He probably meant the trees should be removed. But I do not agree.

That scene would give a complex to the Jomtien Complex crowd.

That's easy ! What's wrong with this picture ! Answer : they paved paradise and put up a parking lot ! They cut down the biggest most beautiful trees on the beach and replaced it with concrete a sign a wide road rows of tall (what looks like prison floodlights like most of the beach now has that killed the ambience at night and did that well past this area also . Goodby trees and beach hello concrete lights and wide road [emoji37]
