Description Yin & Yang are not completely black or white, just as things in life are not completely black or white, and they cannot exist without each other.
While "yin" would be dark, passive, downward, cold, contracting, and weak, "yang" would be bright, active, upward, hot, expanding, and strong.
Both gives you a sense of the continual movement of these two energies, yin to yang and yang to yin, causing everything to happen: just as things expand and contract, and temperature changes from hot to cold.

So smooth! The contrasts here are really well defined and I like your choice of tones. Most people seem to go for the blue IR (and I've fallen into that too!), so it's nice to see some experimentation.

The scene itself is great, from the traditional structure to the left to that big slab of concrete in the sky on the right And that reflection in the water? So nice!

Wow incredible. The contrasts are not as important as this confrontation of two worlds.
A great composition, the reflection in the water is so
a big for you.

Those leaves looks like japanese paper

Not surprising you probably took it in the japanese garden.

Really nice effect

Wow, amazing contrast! This is a really beautiful photo, it's so clear and crisp. That might've sounded weird. Anyway, great job.
