  1. Danielle,

    Amazing shot! I love the light on the building and of course the rich, full, orange/red moon. Did those people in the photo release the candle bags into the sky? I remember Thais doing that at a wedding I was at in Southern Thailand a few years back. It was a beautiful, memorable site!

    Thanks for posting this, brings back great memories of Angkor Wat & SE Asia in general!

    Thanks for the feedback! The Khmer people released candle bags on the water. When they released the bags they made a wish (for the New Year). The bags are not pictured in this photo because they are on the opposite side where I captured the shot . . . I zoomed in for this one! Glad you enjoyed 🙂

    xo,
