myanmar - bagan Sunrise@Bagan.Myanmar

When I gave up film for digital, I knew it would be difficult or impossible to get a photo if the sun was a prominent element in the frame.  The tonal transitions in the vicinity of the sun are just too abrupt.  I can see that here with a small yellow doughnut around the sun, then a larger reddish doughnut, and then a larger, non-symmetrical transition of colors in the sky.  I've seen just a couple of good photos of the sun taken with digital cameras, and it's always puzzled me how they managed to do it.  This is clearly one area where film does a decidedly better job than digital, even with a camera like the Hasselblad that can capture a greater dynamic range than 35mm-based cameras with a smaller sensor.  I think eventually new technology will overcome this limitation, but we're not there yet.

I get a sense that this is a special place from the shape of the buildings and especially the jagged edge of the largest building.  I'm not sure, but you might check whether they are leaning slightly to the left.

Indeed not easy to capture the sun to be included in the composition. This one is the better one than the others. The problem here is also the "squeezing" from the original file size to just few percentage of the huge original. The original looks fine and good for print (A2).
