This is......... breathtaking..

was lucky with it but the poor positioning of the boats is suggestive that the birds are flying so fast that i can't really composed properly. but well, there are people who can do it though...

This is one thread that I keep coming back to. Very inspirational and some really interesting point of views.

Please do post new ones. If not I'll be like a idiot looking at the same photos over and over again :bsmilie:

the interesting POV may have a lot to do with my amateurish approach. this is my most satisfied trip becos of the lighting and the shooting opportunities.

though i've probably depleted more than 80% of the postable pics for this trip, i will try to squeeze a few more when i'm home, but then i'm afraid they are going to be rather average-looking.

allahabad kumbh mela pilgrimage ground, women (think so) dressing up
and flipping the coat over the shoulder/ still not happy with the tonal
distribution of this pic, but may only return when my acuity for that is
better.

this trip is highly productive due to good weather (except for the cold after-midnight at kumbh mela)

50mm f/1.8 AF-D Nikkor, cheap, light and good.
at close shot, i need my subjects head on.
if they slant their face, one of the eyes will be off focus.

the effect and approach is quite different from 30mm f/1.4 which despite being larger aperture is much wider. still prefer 50mm over 30mm, but haven't yet try the 85mm lens...

becos there are pictures that i may go back to look again. i have a little attention deficit so i tend not to be able to stay at one spot and go chronological, tend to hop here and there.
plus i think i have process pictures better and more controlled when compared to before, so it isn't a bad idea. i dun think my composition and shooting skills have improved much though.
