If you think that this picture is magic, it's maybe that there's a trick to it.

Back in Yangshuo, China, I was looking for the best opportunity to take an above average sunset picture.
And given the spectacular nature of the surrounding area, it should have been fairly easy.

Well, it wasn't, mostly because it's impossible to climb on those limestone peaks to get a clear view. But no need to panic.

So I'm riding my rented bike. The sunset show has already begun. I'm sweating because the more it goes, the more I think that this entreprise will surely fail. When I see a dilapilated building on the side of the road.

In it, it seems possible to reach the roof so I'm going, only to find myself in the company of the picture enthousiasts club of Yangshuo, about eight people, all equiped with cameras ranging from brand new and extremely expensive to a hundred years old and unbuyable.

And from there, not only do we overlook a picturesque pond in front of the limestone peaks, but the group is also connected to the chinese man on the bamboo raft with talky walkies.

That helps if you want that man going a bit on the right, a bit on the left, raising an arm, or taking whatever position that would look good in a picture.

So there you, that's the trick.
Welcome to the remote controlled perfection.
