Sunrise in Bangkok. View from Ratchaprarop

[Marc Schultz]

Welcome to the forum Kat and thank you for posting some of your images.

I once shot from the Ratchaprarop building as well, but I recall they charge money for access to that 6th floor roof area. I was not so crazy about the fact though that there are such large billboards which are unavoidable in a photo. Unfortunately I was not there shooting on a day when the sky was anything dramatic either.

The sky in your photo looks to have much better atmosphere than in mine and you took the photos just at the right time at dusk. Congratulations.

It was a long night out and I could not find sleep that night. So I decided to stay awake till sunrise to take some pictures. At first I was disappointed, 'coz the sky was too nebulous in my view, but when the pics have been developed... Thanks for your compliments!

The next picture shows a view of Din Daeng.

Interesting background and thanks for sharing the new shots of Din Daeng. Normally I shoot at dusk, but of course just after sunrise is good too, but the afternon skies in Bangkok are often clearer than the morning skies.

Where were those Din Daeng shots taken from? Looks like a better location than the Rajaprarop building. Less billboards it seems.

kat..i think if you merge 3 pics together it will be a nice panorama of bangkok

Actually, I tried to merge the three pics from Din Daeng together for a panaroma view, but I decided to let them stand as single ones, 'coz while I was shooting them I did not gave attention if they will match later. So, if you'll have a closer look at them u can see the possible interfaces. They are so small 'coz they are so wide, and I had in mind that they will match into the frame the site provides.
Also, I shot them from the Ratchaprarop Building either! I like your pics, znail, even when they are a little bit blurred.
