Comment on Pavement Patterns by Bojidar

Hi Ang3lic — yes, you are right, the composition is diagonal. By “vertical” I meant “vertical orientation”, as opposed to “horizontal orientation.”

I am very sorry, but isn’t this diagonal composition?

Comment on Do I Need a Full-Frame dSLR? by Scott Koring

Amazing ananlysis of your problem. I’m not sure I can offer anything to your thoughtful contemplation. I shoot both a 5D and 40D side by side. 2 years ago full frame was the holly grail for me. Now after extensive use I love my 5d and have agonized over upgrading to the mk2, but I have become very turned off by Canon design lately. In all practicality the results from the 5d and 40d are both great. Of course the 5d images are better but in everday applications not Earth shattering. In all honestly I find what Nikon and Olympus are doing right now much more interesting. I like very much what Nikon is doing with their bodies.
As for olympus, a system totally designed around digital from the gound up and the aspect ratio of the files appeal to me.

Hello Carsten,

thanks a lot for your comment, and you are right — I have kind of neglected the modern India. On my first trip to India I was open to all aspects of India, but slowly I did get sucked into the fairy-tale aspects of the country more and more. In fact it got so “bad” that I caught myself virtually running away from the big cities and into the small and “underdeveloped” villages.

That being said, I do like your images of the modern India a lot!

Cheers,
Bojidar

Hi Bojidar,

like the posters before I like the ‘Prayer in the Ganges’ shot best.

It seems to me that you fell into the same trap that catches many visitors of India: the picturesque scenes. Yes, they are nice to look at, but India has so much more to offer. It’s a country that is extremely diverse and is living in the 14th and the 21st century simultaneously. I’m missing photos that show today’s India in portfolio.

Cheers

Carsten

Hi Bojidar,

I liked the Prayer in the Ganges too; the smooth water contrasting (both in texture and colour) with the crisp silhouette was great. However, what really made the image work for me was the sharp yet heavily distorted shadow on the flowing water; this kind of creates both a physical reality of the present and a glimpse of the worlds beyond.

I am an Indian and something like this is not exotic to me, more like commonplace and I’ve seen loads of tourists taking similar shots. Your inclusion of the shadow is what made me pause!

Regards,
Raj

Hey Bojidar,

Prayer in Ganges is my favorite picture. I like the smooth Water. Did you already tried the Banana Seller in Black and White? I think that would be a nice b/w picture.

Sleeping Dog is very funeral. The dog doesn’t look fit.

Greetings,
Robert

OK, let’s go. I think my preferred one is “Drying laundry”. The colors, composition and light are perfect. There are even these 2 men on the left without who the picture would have looked a bit empty. This is a very original image. Well done Bojidar!
