Those are great. Can you detail a little bit about the technique used? especially interested in the metering mode (matrix, center weighted or spot).

Little girl at sunset, picture taken at Mae Haad Pier, Koh Tao, Thailand.

These were all taken on manual, most had a slight bit of negative exposure comp, matrix metering, used the cameras suggestion as a starting point. Monopod only to give myself the ability to move around a bit more. At least on of the other photographers got their tripod caught and fell into an inspection pit!

I have a pair of contrasting silhouettes...in both pictures the train is in about the same location, having just run over a bridge above a "BOAT" (Byway Open to All Traffic) called Rookwood Lane. The first is a moonlight silhouette, the second a sunset one, and also the two pictures are taken from opposite sides of the ine, and the sunset one from a good deal further away than the first one!
