Hi all,
I was off for a trip to Cambodia for 4 days. Miss you guyz a lot!
But it really was a fun & productive trip - I've got lots of cool stuffs to be shared ^^.
I've also got my 1st try of long-exposure photos, it really came out beyond my expectation!

Nov 22, 10.25PM: Night on Tonle Sap
I just accidentally moved the camera while it was functioning with the light process, and here's how it came out. A fun note is that I didn't have enough money to buy a proper tripod to do this shot. Well, the benches at the riverside became my unintended 'tripod' then. Love that they the Cambodian people put the benches there, hahahah!

Exposure: 30
Aperture: f/10.0
Focal Length: 90 mm
ISO Speed: 400
Exposure Bias: 0 EV
Flash: Off, Did not fire

Nov 23: Today I woke up early at 4.30AM to get the sunrise on Tonle Sap. While it was still dark, I took some photos of the street lights...

Exposure: 20
Aperture: f/10.0
Focal Length: 90 mm
ISO Speed: 200
Exposure Bias: 0 EV
Flash: Off, Did not fire

And here the sun came...

Exposure: 5
Aperture: f/13.0
Focal Length: 90 mm
ISO Speed: 200
Exposure Bias: 0 EV
Flash: Off, Did not fire

Exposure: 0.8
Aperture: f/16.0
Focal Length: 55 mm
ISO Speed: 200
Exposure Bias: 0 EV
Flash: Off, Did not fire

Hope you enjoy them as much as I did.. More Cambodian wonders to be shared soon ^^

Oh yes, Oh yes Minh. I really enjoyed them. That 20 sec exposure shot of the lights is spectacular. Your early morning rise certainly paid off. I look forward to the next lot. Thank you. PAUL

Hi Minh! fantastic evening and early morning shot..the first one is a happy accident and the lights in the 2nd and 3rd just pop beautifully..the 4th one is so serene..

Note: the whole DPS knew you were off to Cambodia..someone who missed you so much posted some portraits of you..hehe..

Nice job on these, Minh. Your nighttime exposures are first rate and I like your second one the best. Your early morning shots are also excellent.
