good shot... and interesting place...

**Charlie Victor** · 11-30-2020, 03:35 AM

Very nice shot and the aerial view adds to it!
Best.

Perfekt elevation for the shot, high enough to separate the buildings and at the same time not that high that you can't make out their size.

Great image. I wouldn't go up in a hot air balloon unless someone paid me and it would have t5o be a lot.

Thank you, the balloon is tethered to the ground

Incredible views of the countryside, Angkor is a way off, so the 300mm F4 came in handy!

Quite spectacular view you got. Good use of a 300mm. Thanks for sharing!

outdoorsman · 12-09-2020, 08:33 AM

Great shot, very very cool building.

Photogoof · 12-09-2020, 08:35 AM

**STARHUNTER94** · 12-09-2020, 07:33 PM

Ha! That's so cool from that view (and not from a drone)!

The K1 and 300mm F4 make for quite a combination.

If you ever get the chance to visit the complex, I highly ( no pun intended ) recommend it.
