Found these workmen sharpening a scissor using a grinding wheel.The

tool they are using is an antique one.

All helpful comments welcome.

Splendid shot , the look of concentration on the guy with the scissors is intense . Needs to be viewed large to be appreciated . Bill

Hi Ramesh,

This is wonderful work.

It is a documentary on how hard these people labor daily.

Great shot.

Best Regards,  Mike

Wonderful shot - my only change would be to crop out the shiny car cover - it would make the image long and narrow - echoing the mans limbs. I love how you captured their concentrated effort.

Cheers,

Nancy

Excellnt work Ramesh.  They appear very tired working with almost primitive too.  Very nice work Kallol.

Man and work.

Really excellent capture and very nice colors tone.

Ramesh, I like the POV with the men facing each other. I can imagine the man on the right continually pulling the cord that turns the stone while the man with the scissors concentrates on the sharpening. The B/W works very well. The top of the car cover in the background might be a bit too light, but it's not distracting the activity of the men. 

Perfect detail and beautiful composition.

Great capture. The B&W tones , surroundings & the visible concentration in the faces of the men make it an excellent documentary image.

Regards.

Very nice shot, Great details. With best regards.

Amazing capture of this ancient art.....Regards

Hi Ramesh,

Great work!.......Best Regards, KA

A really wonderful image Ramesh.  I haven't seen this mechanism. Beautiful in its simplicity and design.

Like others, I find the car cover a real distraction and it damages the whole feel of the image.  I would clone, burn or crop it out.  A crop to just past the shadow of the car really makes this image pop for me.  It makes it a rather rectangular image but that's ok for me.

Nice work.

Very nice b/w shot, best regards.

very good documentary and bw...congrats

So much been said here dear friend Ramesh and for me this image deserve it all, you brought for us an image with virginity and original atmosphere where these two gentlemen are practicing the profession of their essential living returns, having said that, what makes this image of very high quality is the way of exposing it with great accuracy and a remarkable DOF which obtained maximum details of the all surrounding o show the environmental conditions around these workers, your composition my friend is so well engineered and makes this image well deserve all of the respect.

Thank you for viewing it and wishing you all of the best.
