davidorea 1 Posted July 6, 2006 Excellent and quite original portrait, Umair. Expression and colors are great! Regards Link to comment
markonestudios 4 Posted July 6, 2006 Wonderful capture, Umair. Superb colours and framingWhat post-processing did you do on this, because it seems to me the right side of his face is a bit bright compared to his robe which seems to be more in shadow. The overall lighting of his face makes it seem to me like he was pasted into the photo, which of course I know he wasn't! Perhaps you used the dodge tool? If not, then I would be very curious to know what lighting was available to cause this effect...Best regards from Kenya,Mark Link to comment
awaraagard 0 Posted July 6, 2006 thanx orea, & mark 4 ur keen interest in the details. light inside that shrine is very tricky, as i mentioned earlier it comes through carved window panes, which means that on some places it falls & other places r illuminated by glow & not by light itself. so it can result easily in eratic light & shade kind of pattern. this shot was taken in very low light situation & D 60 sensor doesn't capture that very well. most digital sensors of earlier cameras fail 2 capture low light detail. i used dodge & burn extensively in PS, which may not come out so expertly. regards!

markonestudios 4 Posted July 6, 2006 Umair,I have the same lens on my film EOS Rebel G (500N). I can imagine how tough it would have been to capture this because it only opens up to f/4.5 at the long end. So congratulations to you either way :)Best regards from Kenya,Mark Link to comment
awaraagard 0 Posted July 6, 2006 well, digital gives u one consolation @ least, ie increase ISO, but with earlier digital models, ISO more than 200 is in itself a problem. grain & noise. regards! Link to comment

alecee 0 Posted July 7, 2006 This definitely is a winner Umair. You always come up with very lovely compositions. The colors are just right - interesting dodge and burn technique. Link to comment
momente 0 Posted July 7, 2006 This photo is worth all the talk. Subject, framing, tonal range (ok, so maybe his face is slightly bright, but considering the lighting conditions you'd have to be mad to frown), excellent. Link to comment
