What a magnificent property!

Angkor Wat at Sunrise. Hello my dear fellow steemians,
today I'd like to share this photo with you. In January, I traveled to Siem Reap, Cambodia. Apparently, there is only a few structures you can see from space and Angkor Wat Temple sites is one of them. (others are the! Chinese wall, etc) . Correct me if I am wrong, but there are 2500 temples belonging to this particular dynasty located between Cambodia and Laos. I rented I Tuk Tuk for three days and visited about a dozen of those temples. My driver, the best dude ever showed me around and gave me all the time in the world to really enjoy the sites. I spent up to three hours in each temple to do my photography and take it all in. A just extraordinary place!

The reflection of the sun in the water is just something else..... spectacular photo.....

I use Cokin gradient filters to soften the horizon. The way it touched the palm tree in the water wasn't planned but turned out to be quite interesting. Thanks for the comment

Amazing sunrise. I love the reflections.

This picture was taken at the Sunset Viewpoint in Amed, Bali. The volcano in the back is the famous Mt. Agung. It is possible to hike this volcano, but unfortunatly it was closed when we there, due to recent volcanic activity.

Beautiful image, the sky looks out of this world.

Thank you!



The beauty of the beach "SANEY" "LHOONG" "Great Aceh" at sunset. Some coconut trees contained in beaches make the atmosphere more beautiful twilight. The beach is located at the edge of Aceh Besar district and covers a distance of about 60 kilometers from the city of "Banda Aceh".

I just want to go to the beach after looking at your image:)....

Today I am sharing architectural beauty from Kuala Lumpur in Malaysia. I took this photo of Petronas Twin Towers last September. Night time is even better for photographing skyscraper which was the tallest building on the world for quite a some time.

I would like to share a picture of round roller coaster during the night. When I was walking from Tsim She Tsui opposite Kowloon park where I had a hotel room then I took connection by boat between Viktoria harbour and Hong Kong Island where is localised this cheap ride only for 20 HKD is around 2£ per person. I made a picture without filters and I used my iPhone 7 plus.

Kenrokuen Garden in Kanazawa, Japan

One of the famous gardens in this fascinating countries. Kanzawa used to be a bit of the tracks but due to a new Shinkansen high speed train line it is now much easier accessible and attracts big crowds of people. But definitely a gem on the western coast of Japan

Gardens by the Bay, Singapore

The Gardens by the Bay in Singapore are an architectonical feat and a paradise for photographers. This building is just a side-kick to the huge artificial forest and buildings such as the cloud forest house.

The Golden Temple in Kyoto is one of my favorite places to visit in Japan. Unfortunately for me, it's also a favorite for just about every tourist who visits. Make sure to get there early! That said, the way that the temple has organized the walk ways makes it pretty easy to get a clear shot with no people. With its perfect reflections you can see why it's a popular spot.

This is such a cool shot. I bet it was worth getting there early to get the this shot.

Surprisingly Dhaka has many secrets to be found! During dry season, I got to play badminton on the roof of building!

These are great place to play out at night while the weather is cool, and I must say the scenery is just unbelievable ... Enjoy :)

Talking about Aceh is not going to be endless because Aceh has a million tourism potential worthy of tourists visited the world. One of them is the Baiturrahman Banda Aceh highway which is famous for its splendor and architecture which is very beautiful and charming.

Hi, this time I'm showing you a sunset at a Taiwanese pier in Taipei. Many fishermen's boats are housed in this pier, at mid-afternoon several fishermen go out to continue working or some in search of food for their families. Also this pier is very touristy for its striking sunsets.

Waiting for the sunrise. Waiting for the rise of air balloon. Waiting for the view that full of air balloon in the sky. This is Goreme. This is Cappadocia. This is Turkey. The air balloon paradise.

I was watching this Indonesian Fisherman on the small Island of Nusa Penida near Bali. He was sitting at the edge of a cliff which was at least 30m high. I thought he will never catch something, but then he pulled out a fish. Great catch!

              Lut Tawar Lake-Aceh

I took this picture on my vacation in January 2017 while I was visiting my uncle house in Takengon, the coolest district in aceh -Indonesia. This view of lut tawar lake can be seen perfectly from Pantan Terong Hill where I had to travel about 6 Km from my uncle house. I rode my motorbike with my family to reach this place. The rute was really dangerous to go, but when you saw how beautiful the view of lake can be seen here, all your hard trip had been paid.

Subhanallah...
