umd 0 Posted September 23, 2002 I am amazed at how the photographer made an assembly from such a dynamic scene. Unique moment in time, well deserved pow. Link to comment
w._kale_whorton 0 Posted September 23, 2002 Wow, a beautiful shot. excellent stitching. Looks like quite an event. Link to comment
chris_whaley 0 Posted September 23, 2002 Excellent work!....not a nit pic about the photo but i think a frame around it would help separate it a bit from the page. Link to comment
derek_d1 0 Posted September 23, 2002 This is a really stunning photograph. One question - Are the shadows in the center, and right edge going in different directions, or am I seing this wrong? Link to comment
bdighe 0 Posted September 23, 2002 Its a great shot. I have been to kumbh once and I am wondering how did you find the place to put up accessories to take this amazing shot. I will rate it as (10, 10) Link to comment
lance_lee2 0 Posted September 23, 2002 Hi,great photo. The lighting is fantastic and it really shows the sheer greatness of this largest pilgrimage ever. one of this scale won't happen again for another 144 years.I was there too. My works on the same topic can be found at http://www.offstone.com/kumbh drop me an email at lance@offstone.com?we can talk about this common experience. Maybe we have met each other there.

olivier_truan 0 Posted September 23, 2002 Too bad the scale doesn't go to 11 (like in "Spinal Tap") Link to comment
voets 0 Posted September 23, 2002 Impressive! Must already be a kind of spiritual experience to be amongst so many people. Link to comment
bozovic 0 Posted September 23, 2002 The photo is very good! It's amazing how you were able to capture so many people in one (okay, five) photo(s). Nice details in the pic! To answer a question: The shadows are going into different directions because the camera was turned and this pictures consists of five different images. I guess a frame would be very nice and make this strong picture even stronger. Link to comment
brucepercy 0 Posted September 23, 2002 This one is definitely most deserved of status of POW. It's a terrific image. Link to comment
navin_mistry 0 Posted September 23, 2002 This format is very effective for the right subject matter and boy have you found it here ! Did you set up a tripod ? Link to comment
rienk_jiskoot 0 Posted September 23, 2002 Of course the light of this mega-event is as it is, and I'm willing to accept the explanation that these 5 pictures could only have been taken at this moment of the day. Nothing to do about that. But what's bothering me is the total lack of any facial expression, although the people in the front row are rather close to the photographer/camera. Almost everybody's face is in partly or total darkness. This picture doesn't tell me anything at all apart from the fact that the event was visited by an awful lot of people. It stirs no emotions, nothing (with me). I'm sorry, for me it's just an unimpressive bad lighted composite of an impressive gathering of people. Link to comment
bozovic 0 Posted September 23, 2002 I agree with you, Rienk, but simply the mass of people is overwhelming so the picture has something, I think. Of course, there are many details in which the picture could be improved, but given the circumstances I think this picture is good! I'm not sure if it's a POW but it is good. Link to comment
