 Bucket list place. Awesome.

It was a strange week watching this image go up from the initial vote of 6. I'm used to seeing scores down over the week, but this kept going up. It will be a very long time before I am lucky enough to replace this high score from my front page! A personal best for sure.

Thanks for all the votes and comments, they are very much appreciated.

Sunrise Earth - I saw this on tv - the cormorant fishermen
Other wordly
And to experience it firsthand must be quite amazing

If it were up to me, this would win the prize - love it.

I predict a ribbon - for me this is a winning picture.
The mystic atmosphere, the calmness, colours, reflection, exotic landscape, balanced composition, the sharpness of the fisherman and the birds next to the lantern and on the oar - all this adds up to a perfect 10
