Photographer's Note
While floating down some tributary of the Mekong River approaching Chau Doc, the light was low and perfect for backlighting any subject that happened to be up on the river bank. My position was low enough that I was self-flagged and didn't get flares. This was shot at 3:48 pm. I bumped the ISO up a little to get a higher shutter speed as I was handheld from a wobbly boat. This lens is okay at this stop, and I'm not sure sacrificing the shutter speed for a slightly deeper stop (ie sharper lens performance) would have paid off. I'm happy with it. It is tweaked only slightly in LR: no cropping, just a little saturation, a touch more exposure and a smidgeon of contrast added.
ISO 200
95mm

Hello Trevor,
Good low angle shot against the back lit gaining some interesting details of the subjects against the natural scene here. Sharp colors and vivid details are demonstrated all over this image. Nice pleasant crop for the rider to move forward in the frame.
Regards,
Jusni
