Po Lin bodhisattvas, a photo from Hong Kong, South

Photographer's Note

A walk around the grand budha state and its stairs offer the opportunity to see the nice bodhisattvas statues.

Few tour companies offers day-tour from HK to Lantau to visit the Cheung Cha Beach, Tai O fishing village, this temple of Po Lin.

Hello Flavia,

A superb composition very well balanced with the statues on the left and the moutains in the background.
Best regards,
Roger

Olá Flavia,

muito bonita composição. Parece até que as mulheres pousaram para você. Está tudo bem encaixado na imagem. O sol devia ser forte, hein? Ótimo trabalho!
Abraço,
Carlos

Hello Flavia. The photo is beautiful and outstanding composed. Pleasant colors. Worth seeing. Above all the women with the umbrellas fit well into the picture. Best regards, Wolfgang.

Olá Flávia!
A composição com as belas estátuas, as pessoas caminhando (de forma bem natural) e as montanhas ao fundo, fez desta fotografia uma linda imagem, bem atrativa, gostosa de se ver!
Parabéns!
Abraços,
Neyvan

Oi Flavia!
Escolheu um bom ângulo e capturou ótima perspectiva do local. Gosto de ver as mulheres carregando suas sombrinhas, o que é um detalhe muito legal da fotografia.
Abraços!
Zeca

Olá Flávia
Bela e interessante composição.
Gosto da "correspondência" entre as estátuas e as mulheres com sombrinhas (chapéus-de-sol).
Um abraço,
F.

This is what composition means Flavia.
A mid noon shoot, and the subjects inhaling oxygen are carrying umbrellas.
These subjects have come here to see the majesty of Lord Buddha, whose scuptures vibate the atmosphere with light divine.
The overcast above the mountain range and the diagonal perspective of the star case make me travel along with.

TFS,
Rajeev

Looks like a great place to visit - with those mountains for a backdrop. The tourists included remind us that this is a popular tourist attraction.
Cheers,

Dave

hello flavia,
fantastic place. I like the people walking with umbrella. the light is not very good because the day is with clouds. congratulations. a greeting.

Hi Flavia, your view is a traveler's companion in the form of a memory snapshot. Ok there are some lighting problems, but...
a) your POV shows depth and quality perspective,
b) you have positioned your subjects in the right way pleasing to the eye.
c) you had difficult sky conditions, the clouds came almost white/gray with no interest up there.

Almost none of this is entirely your fault.

My suggestions:
a) a polarizer!!! (try HOYA Pro 1 Digital)
b) a little sharpness after you resize the photo for TrekEarth (you decide the parameters)
c) if you can visit the place in the morning or in the afternoon and take another try.

I could suggest even more, but start with these. You have good equipment, try using lightroom before photoshop.
