Sunset From My Balcony Today.

in #photography10 years ago

Every so often, Bangkok delivers an absolute gem of a sunset....and today was one of those days. It was almost post-apocalyptic in its beauty. Unfortunately, I only had my iPhone and not my good camera, and it caught me unawares.Yet, I still managed to snap this pic; A cosmic alignment of the moon, the humidity and just the right amount of toxic pollution molecules and particles come together in a jaw-dropping cacophony of pinkinsh-orange and purple hues.


Beautiful Bangkok Sunset:


The Buildings:


The largest building you can see in the foreground to the right is the 69 story MET Condo Tower on Sathorn Road. The building behind it, and to the left is the recently completed Mahanakorn Tower, which is now the tallest building in Thailand at 77 floors and 315metres. It is the one that looks like a game of Jenga. You can see my post about the opening-night light-show extravaganza HERE.The other building of note is the one near the centre of the picture. This is the 4 conjoined buildings which make up Empire Tower. 52 separate elevators are required to serve this building which houses many international law, advertising and insurance firms. Asiatique is a riverside night market on which I will be writing a feature for steemit soon.

Hope you enjoyed my sunset as much as I did.

NB: I did tweak the colours a little bit but it was still even more vivid in real life.

Thank you very much!
It's not so much a vote of confidence as a confident vote on a great picture!

Even us point-and-click guys get lucky sometimes :)

Cheers, I'd be happier if there was an ocean in that pic somewhere. hahaha

Haha, you can't have it all ;)

Great sunset picture! Yes, Bangkok is a beautiful city. (I'm Thai ^^)

Nice to meet you. Are you in Bangkok too?

Nice to meet you too. I live in Nonthaburi, but usually go to visit my mom at my brother's condominium in Bangkok. :)

Bangkok is really beautiful when the night is coming,night never stops,whoo.

In the late evening when a couple of degrees shaves off the temperature and you eat and drink your way into the early hours.
