I haven't figured out the final title for this shot yet.. this is one of the shots that i have mentally visualized to shoot for so long, and luckily i've managed to find a spot to realize it.

Straits of Malacca coastline, Malaysia, Jan 2011

Hasselblad 553ELX, CZ 120 makro planar
Fuji Acros 100, Hc110 Dil E (1:47) 7mins @ 20C

Now that's a fantastic shot. Love the long exposure effect on the sky and foreground, and tree does seem nicely exposed. It just works nicely for me.

I agree with all the comments above. Fantastic smoothness and control of contrast. Make a great wall hanger.

Me as well!! Very nice and fantastic Photo. But I am a bit curious and it is about this 120 Macro Planar used for the shot. What I heard about this lens is, it is only good for Close-up photography, and not for portraits and Landscapes. But this is a stunning shot.
