The Old Village Temple in Cochin, Kerala, India.

Taken next to a village temple in a Brahmin village in Kochi, India.

I like how the lower left corner appears to be in black and white. I realise it is just the shade. To control exposure so well in difficult lighting conditions really is the mark of a genius.... well almost anyway.

You noticed David, it's a challenge and I'm glad you appreciate. You're too kind, thanks. My client was going back to his ancestral village and I saw this unique area with incredible light.

A wonderful sense of solitude to this picture, Alec.

Hi, Alec

 

I have been following your postings and have viewed every photo in your "All my favourite photos" folder. I feel proud that there is such an accomplished and recognised photographer from Singapore. This is another great photo from you. Such a simple scene, and yet you can create a unique photo out of it. I suppose that's what separates a good photographer from the rest. Congrats!

Excellent shot alec, simple but very pleasing to the eye, u know before i spotted ur name under the thumbnail i realized it was going to be one of ur shots. You have a very nice style alec, Bravo and best regards, RK!

Exquistite composition, best balance between dark & bright, great layers of the color by fine control on exposure, nice perspective & DOF, alec very well composed!!! Best regards.
