Hi all,

Thank you for your kind comments. I'm happy you guys like my photos. Sky condition in Bagan is really good. Can watch the milky way with naked eye. Under that type of sky, it is not so easy to recognize the constellation. :D

More photos to come soon. Still processing . . . :)

Cheers!

This wide field photo is simply awesome.

The light pollution is very minimal, and seems to add beauty to the photo rather than destroying it. It helps to show the outline of the temple (?) in the foreground. I can't really tell if that photo was taken in dusk or simply because there is light pollution at the background.

Well done.

Yeah yybmage, if I'm not wrong, the cluster towards the upper left is Pleiades.
