Khun Korn waterfall, Chiang Rai this morning.

I've added the second pic to give an idea of scale. There are people standing in the bottom right hand corner.

View from the top of Monkey Hill looking towards Phang Nga - taken with my new "Oneplus 2" phone.

(Wish I could post at original resolution - 5x bigger!)

A reservoir somewhere near Chaiyaphum, 2003:

Interesting composition, @JetsetBkk ... I'd have gone for more sky rather than more water, but it works!

(Apart from that bit of land in the bottom right-hand corner).

Yes, I should've chopped that bit off as well. (I already chopped about 20% off the bottom because of a plastic bag lying on the shore line.)

Safety first , as usual

And one more

Beautiful shots Tangaroa;

what is your camera ?

[tangaroa67]

Thanks, @Assurancetourix ... it's a Canon 5D Mark III, but equipment is much less important than technique. You can get amazing images from inexpensive equipment, if you know how to use it.

Three photos from the tsunami day showing how fast the tide was coming in at Rawai, S. Phuket, merged into a gif file.

Unfortunately, I didn't take any pictures of the tide "going out", but it was just as fast and a little scary.

Very nice colours and light; perhaps if you had moved left a little so that the object in the foreground, taking away from the tranquil scene, would not have been a cow's arse?

@FracturedRabbit ; it's a crop because I had the date inside the photo .

Thank u for your compliments,

Perhaps another lesson; take the date off the photo? The date and time you took it are stored in the image file anyway. Although what I meant was, if you had moved to the left and composed such that the big butt was not in the photo, it could have been a really nice image.

I don't have the date on the photo since a long time now; I know now it's in the exifs .

the date of the photo above is 2014 feb 07 , two years ago;

and next time when passing there, if the herd is there, I will do as you write .

Thanks again .

Photographing windsurfers in Pattaya means shooting straight into the afternoon sun (wind is best in the afternoon). This means I have to add typically 3 stops of positive exposure compensation, otherwise the subjects are just silhouettes (spot metering is too unreliable). The good news is that you can end up with a very sparkly sea, like in this shot:
