Hey,
Thanks for the links.. So many beautifuk pics... I knew Pirandi works, not others.
A few points from my side.....
Possibly except for a few days in the year and only in North East region, nowhere in India 4 am there is Sunrise. Sun rises around 6ish in Summer, 7ish in Winters.
Another observation.... all the links show sun and the beams at much higher location than sunrise anywhere in the world. The timing of the photographs is certainly much after sunrise ..or towards evening.... much before sunset.... Please correct me if I am wrong on this.
I have never been to Indonasia, may be this lght exists, I can't say. But I still strongly feel that almost all images in the links you gave are manipulated. Look at Pam's workflow, Rarindras tips... they all say the same thing... it is manipulated.
I have seen sunrays through smoke in very urben locations too. In the heart of cities driping through some tree, it looks beautiful.....
But in these Indonation pics case, even Rarindra has given tips about cutting figures and pasting them on some scene .... what about that???
My only argument is that these images are manipulated and it is impossible to get the exact colours and light lke this in reality... [ Some of teh images in your links clearly show extremly increased saturation too]

I believe this is the method he used for this photo.
