ejd Posted February 10, 2017 Share #1 Posted February 10, 2017 (edited) Advertisement (gone after registration) November 2016. Leica M4, 35mm f2 asph summicron, fuji reala. processed and scanned at Konota in Singapore There must be millions of similar photographs. There were lots of people crowded along the edge of this pond taking pictures of the same thing at the same time. Now very much a cliché. Still, very beautiful, remarkable, and fascinating. The end of a roll of film that had been sitting in the camera for a few years, with several unexpected images. Welcome, dear visitor!

Advertisement Posted February 10, 2017 Posted February 10, 2017 Hi ejd, Take a look here Angkor Wat at dawn. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
Doc748 Posted February 17, 2017 Share #2 Posted February 17, 2017 Nice picture. I ma going to Angkor Wat in mid March for two nights only. My questions are 1) what lenses would you recommend for the park and 2) did you use a tripod for this picture? Thanks. Javier Montiel 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ejd Posted February 20, 2017 Author Share #3 Posted February 20, 2017 (edited) Thank you, Javier! I used the 35mm lens for the entire trip over five days. I had a 50mm with me but didn't use it. The choice was based on laziness on my part, as my (limited) experience is that the 35mm works much of the time and I have got used to that angle of view. But I could imagine that in many places in and around the monuments a wider angle would be good for dramatic pictures. I didn't use a tripod. I just tried to stand very still and hoped for the best -- and took a few shots in the hope that one would be reasonably shake-free.

brill64 Posted February 20, 2017 Share #4 Posted February 20, 2017 lovely image & certainly not a cliche. beautiful silhouette. in answer to Doc748, a pocket or collapsible tabletop tripod may be useful but there is little opportunity to use a full sized tripod because of strict opening & closing times at Angkor Wat.. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc748 Posted February 20, 2017 Share #5 Posted February 20, 2017 Thank you to both end and brill64 for the valuable information. I want to travel light and I think the 35mm and 50mm lenses would come pretty handy. I have a Leica table tripod that I may bring along with a monopod for the early morning shoot. Thanks again.
