I didn't like the result that I got the last time from this location. It was too dark and for me that's usually the way I like it. So I tried again this morning and went for longer times. I also used a graduated neutral density filter to bring the range of exposure within the range of the camera. The 10-stop filter to blur the clouds using an IPhone App was suppose to require a 2 minute exposure. I eventually went for a 3 minute exposure which resulted in this image. I forgot to set the WB to cloudy so I had to do it with software (thanks to RAW files) so I managed to get it to more natural image.

edges
Vaisakhi 2012 gave me a chance to try people photos since there were a lot of people at the occasion. Interesting that of the 368 photos that I took the ones I like have a commonality that to me makes the photo more interesting. There is a strong element at the edges...something I have to keep in mind when shooting these types of subjects.

Point Atkinson 4 Quarters
Interesting observation here is the way the angle of the sunrise etc changes during the year. This allows for some planning when taking sunrise/sunset photos from a particular viewpoint.
Angkor Wat Park Layout
Nice to have this tool, The Photographer's Ephemeris, which shows the topography of locations. It also shows the angle of sunrise/sunset/moonrise/moonset for the specified date.
