Top lighting condition may not be favourable for most subject matters in photography, but this case is an exception. The sparkling water and higher lighting ratio has actually created a much stronger visual impact for this image.
Another image from my visit of Mt. Bromo series… The riders were exercising their horses while waiting for the tourists to return to their hotels. I think that despite the monochromatic appearance of the image, it is still equally strong in visual impact.

Using Photoshop, I desaturated most of the area of the image except the centre of interest.
