The guy is covered with an arching headgear. And yet the face is well lit. This confuses me, considering there is no natural frontal light.

 

It is a beautiful photograph. Thanks.

Very illuminating. The white smoke looks very artistic, almost like a squid placed on top of the filament. Great shot!

Beautiful! But I would get rid of the bottom 15%, and

try maybe a sqare composition. Too much black area at the bottom right corner.

 

The flower petals swirl beautifully. And I love the top cone as well. Something very dynamic about this composition.

Beautiful image, with wonderful foreground: the person against the dark and dangerous mountain top. And then the background seperated by the clouds in between. There is a story here.

Lovely capture. I like the bird arched, and the feathers flowing in the air. The framing would be better perhaps if the top blank (gray) space is minimized a bit, and the white line in the matting is removed. The line is distracting at the bottom edge: next to the perch.

Lovely photo. It got me wondering too what are

these mantises doing around a big egg? I particularly like the one on top left. It is good you cropped the bottom.

I don't know about Fear and Sorrow. But it is definitely malnutrition -- perhaps because of dire poverty. This is a beautiful photo of a not so beautiful (but pretty much global) phenomenon.

Lovely photo, with the green stuff and two boys sitting in the foreground.

 

Unfortunately this photo also tells a sad story, and that is of rampant population explosion. The two boys are sitting where they should be swimming! The Pichola lake's water used to level with the stairs. Twenty five odd years ago there were floods in Udaipur. Now it is mostly droughts. Many people buy water in tankers -- normally used to transport gasoline. Population has essentially more than doubled in the last three decades I think - with the same original infrastructure to support it!?

What a beautiful capture of a face, surrounded by other faces. The mirror in the center simply draws your attention, and then you look at the other three heads around. Very nicely balanced.

 

And I presume the text on the mirror tells people that they are bigger than they look. Just one of the million disclaimers ....

I l love the left-to-right movement suggestion of this photo. And the beautiful arch of the bird in flight, with a bit of blurring suggesting speed. Superb photo. Congrats.

There is something very unique here: The circle created by the arm and their snouts.

Beautifully captured against the cloudy backdrop. Nice colors too. The floors look really nice. There is a clever interplay of colors here: the building is near plain, and all the colors are on the ground and the people.

A great photo showing life around NH8. The women sitting, and the little religious station in the front is a microcosm by itself. The tree on the right top shows the harsh climate of Rajasthan. The truck is an important element of NH8.

I am loving seeing Rajasthan through your photos.

 

This particular photo is very narrative about this man, his life and more perhaps. As they say, a picture is worth more than a thousand words..

 

A bit more light in the eyes would help.

This is a piece of art! It is electrifying, to say the least.

I first thought this is a shot under the microscope. Some cell structure! Wonderful!

Really nice! Love the water falling out of the hair, and also the splashy outer boundary

Wonderful effect. I second the idea mentioned earlier, the figure on the left must be removed. That will balance the photograph well. If not that, then the empty space on the right should be chopped -- not the best choice however.

Wonderful perspective. I like chairs becoming smaller and smaller. And I wonder if these chairs are for

Lilliput?

I could look at this photograph for a very very long time!

There is beauty in this simple collection of items which would perhaps be mundane by themselves.

 

You have made it beautiful. Thankyou for sharing this.

Lovely photograph. The boats add so much appeal with

their diminishing sizes. Nice framing too.

An incredible shot. A Nature shot + People in it.

And the children have been captured in such a natural

way. The square format really helps here. Worthy of a POW.

Beautiful shot. I would however remove the glow on the edge of the petals on the left side-- right where the two petals overlap.

The photo has such wonderful radiance from back lighting. It looks v. good. A bit too much of empty black space at the top IMO. The framing is awesome. Nice presentation.

 

If I had a choice I would use a tripod more stable than a G126-- at least for macro work. Also, a smaller aperture will perhaps help to lessen the blurred petal edges. I don't see what aperture/speed was this photo taken at.
