Approaching The Heavenly Zone

Although it is monotonous, I like the atmospheric environment which is very picturesque. These are horsemen who transport the tourists to the crater of Mount Bromo, East Java, from the hotels. The journey usually starts at 4:00am on the horseback, early in order to catch the glimpse of sunrise. I would like to share with you one of images that I captured during my recent visit. This is a straight forward picture without any manipulations. I think the trickiest part here is to get an accurate exposure.
