Travel Series: Yangon – Part 1

I was on a business trip to Yangon on March 2013. I decided to spend time doing a series of street and landscape photography at this people friendly city. After checking into the hotel, I headed to the first location, the Shwedagon Pagoda.

The following photo was captured at the eastern gate of Shwedagon Pagoda. The sun was at the far end of the horizon, it cast a long shadow on the pedestrians.

The magnificent view of the pagoda as the sun casted its last ray of light.
