gunnar1664882369 1 Posted May 2, 2011 Another very good documentary from you, but not only. This is also an excellent presentation of b/w photography. I like the light/shadow proportion and tonality. Nicely composed with lovely atmosphere. Link to comment

jorge_fernandez3 1 Posted May 2, 2011 Rajat, this image has an strong message of surrendering to your path, regardless of how hard and difficult! Just do it! Warm regards my friend. Link to comment
3m 0 Posted May 3, 2011 I agree with the above comments that the composition of the photo, and the handling of the light & tones is very nicely done, Rajat. I wonder though, if the primary focus should have possibly been more evident on the farmer's face... instead of on the cabbages (?) beyond...? In any event, = a strong documentary photo indeed.

aarkp 2 Posted May 3, 2011 Koushik - thank you, appreciate the visit.Maurizio - thank you. You are a constant friend.Gunnar & El - Your comments please me immensely and are greatly valued. Thank you.Jorge, my old friend! Your humanity is heartening. Thank you.Marjolein - The light was harsh. Looking through the viewfinder the leaves looked great. The man's face was totally in shadow and he was of a particularly dark complexion. I think I focused and metered on the leaves. Using the spot adjustment brush in Lightroom I lightened his face quite a bit but could not recover his features sufficiently. Excessive sharpening I find usually ruins a photograph. Your visit is always looked forward to. Thank you.Mario - old friend, i know you are a man of few words. When you leave a comment, however brief, it means a lot to me. Thank you. Link to comment
