[Notas - Normas] Nota do Artista
Somewhere on the road between Machhkund and Gupteswar there was a small 2x2m cubic concrete construction, open on one side.
Inside a priest. He didn't talk; just accepted some gifts (our guide gave him a flower; I gave him a bottle of water). In return he lightened a small candle and prayed for us.

Have you noticed my steady hand :>)

A wonderful compo with much color and many details: every picture tells a story, this is certainly one of them. Well captured, regards Albrecht

Well captured with your steady hands.
I always wonder why the gods would want all these little gifts...
cheers, David

a nice image of this puja Alfred, colors are fine. The only thing i would like better i believe is if the image could be taken at the smae level as the man instead of form higher up. Otherwise shooting it like this it would have been nice esthetically to give it a tilt toward the left.

A very nice image.pretty good 1/25..

An interesting composition for this very detailed and evocative shot where we can learn a lot about pujas
Well caught !

Very detailed and colourful image - and yes 1/25th and still sharp - well done :)

nice capture. i like the colors and the POV. what also attarcts me is the idol of the deity, only a face in yellow. this is common in some parts of Orissa, i have seen a few of them.
thanks for sharing this pic.

Hi Alfred,

nice colors ,
well done.

Interesting angle gives the shot an environmental portrait feel. The things spread around the man have nice colors and make the image pop. The puff of smoke finishes off the composition. Good work.

The clutter makes this picture. Very well-composed and good POV to make us feel like we're there.

Beautiful composition and colours here, the small interesting objects here make it look very interesting. Nice note too.

Alfred, great details and POV. I assume your driver was hedging for kharmic insurance on the drive ahead :)

I like a lot all the differant things you can see here preparing his puja and I like your natural POV and composition here a lot, too much dynamics would disturb the serenity of this subject IMHO.
Sharp and colorful giving us the right mood.
Indeed really tripod hand you got !
Henk

intriguing scene. the composition is really nice--my eye goes first to the man's face and then is drawn naturally downward following the line of his arm that is continued in the line of the flowers down to the lower right corner of the image. the division of color on the right and neutral tones on the left is also interesting.
regards, emily
