Studio shot of Maisto 1:18 model of the car.

plz critique

wonderful shot! i disagree with elina when she says materializing a little baby.

i feel the photographer has just tried to convey a feeling of happiness and thankfulness to God for giving him the honour to raise the child .

here the idea from the photographer's mind should be considered rather going into the literal meaning of the shot.

this place is called nubra valley,in the region of of ladakh in India.

the place is at a height of about 5000 mts above sea level.On one side sanddunes are are there and otherside you can see snow covered peaks.This is also the only place in india where we can found double hounded camels.And this shot is taken at around 5 am in morning,sun rises early there as it is at very high altitude

this guy who is cosidered evil,is just making faces to the king of kullu who worships lord raghunath.

he is just in a way trying to say that you all are fools to worship him ,but as good wins over evil ,no body listens to him(this all is part of ceremony)

this guy who is considerd to be the evil,is part of the ceremony.

when people worship lord raghunath,this evil try to stops them and just fails in that,as good always wins over bad.

here he is just making faces to the current king of kullu,who is on the other side.

The tenth day of the rising moon is the day Vijay Dushmi is celebrated in the rest of the country and it heralds the celebrations of Dushehra in the Valley. The effigies of Ravana and his brother are not burnt here as in other parts of India as Kullu Dushera is not exactly related to the Holy Ramayana. It all dates back to 17th Century, when local king Jaganand installed an idol of Raghunath on his throne as a mark of penance. After that Lord Raghunath came to be known as a ruling deity of the kullu Valley. The weeklong celebrations begin with the colourful processions of the devotees bringing different Gods and Goddesses of their Villages from different parts of the Valley to pay homage to Lord Raghunath. The main procession begins at Dhalpur maidan, where a chariot carrying the idol of Lord Raghunath is pulled by long ropes by the villagers from one fixed place to the other end of the ground. As the pulling of the ropes is considered sacred by the local people, hundreds of people participate in the activity. Next day morning and evening the Gods are invoked and paraded. For the whole seven days the atmosphere of celebrations, singing and dancing continue. On the 7th day the chariot of Lord Raghunath is taken to the banks of the river Beas where a pile of wood and grass is burnt which symbolizes the burning of Lanka, followed by sacrifice of a buffalo, rooster a lamb, a fish and a crab.

this year its going to happen from 22nd of oct.
