this instrument is called "Qeej"- a type of reed pipe, in which each tone corresponds to a Hmong spoken word. It is a free-reed gourd mouth organ, used to play a text-based melody in the middle range.

The beauty of an abstract picture painted with light. good illustration of the architecture style that combines Hindu and Muslim architectures in the Rajasthani Palace

Ah! Great capture Abmdsudi! I agree, sometimes you get to appreciate a photo once you start looking at all the details. So as they say, keep on clicking! A very nice daily life shot. rgds.

Hi Luciano! A great example of maximizing every square inch of space in your house :) Thumbs up to the homeowners for being innovative and solving their problem. rgds.

Hi Stephen! I appreciate looking at daily life scenes like this, especially if I've never been to that place (or might never get the opportunity to go there). It teaches me something about that place and how people go about their activities. Well captured. rgds.

You've captured the beauty of the island on this single shot, Malgo. The calm waters, the green grasses, the sharp edges of the mountain, the fine sand and most of all the serenity - all very evident. Looks like a very nice place to spend several days shooting nature. rgds.

Very nice farm view John! It's way different from the farm views here in Asia. The blue sky and white clouds complement the grasses well. Stay safe. rgds.

Hi Claude! You have a knack for perfectly timing funny shots -
the little girl is indeed hidden. I also love the candid expression of the mother. rgds.

Hi Jean! What you described is indeed one of the best times to take shots of the sky, and adding the silhouettes of the skyscrapers and the entire curve of the clouds made this photo even better. rgds.

Great way to start testing your new telephoto lens, Jimmy! Love the way you composed this, including the reflection of the bird. The waves on the background makes the photo more appealing. Rgds.

Hi John! Good to communicate with you again. Around 2004-2008, we were exchanging critiques almost every week. I had to lay low in TE afterwards, and coming back just now and seeing most of my favorites/friends back then are no longer active in TE.

Anyway, I miss scenes like this nowadays. The quarantine is taking its toll on everyone, but then it's for everyone's safety so we should abide. Good idea in including the biker in the composition! Keep safe. rgds.

Nice timing on this shot, Abmdsudi! It's like she's wondering "What's going on around us now?"

Love the quality of your PP, and the bokeh made it more appealing. A great candid portrait!

rgds.

Hello Luciano! A very appropriate photo for what's happening nowadays! Great composition and exposure. The monument has stood over time, reminding us we can also do it. Keep safe! rgds.

Great telephoto shot, Stephen! Your timing was perfect, and the bokeh only made this photo more appealing. Those fangs really remind us not to mess with these animals. rgds.

Great shot and idea Ian! I spent several minutes admiring and comparing the "then" and "now" photos. Aside from the differences on the views and buildings, one can also see the differences on the quality of the photos. This is a very good photo project idea! rgds.

Very nice telephoto shot, Sven! The inclusion of the windmills against the bridge background and fields foreground is well composed. If only there's some sunset golden light on those fields, this shot will stand out. rgds.

Hi Claude! This is a great and funny shot! I could only imagine how you took this - trying your best not to be noticed by the woman while adjusting your POV. Love the composition! I bet if you showed this to her, she'll burst out laughing. rgds.

Hello Malgo! I miss travelling to views like this nowadays. It must have been tough going down and up to this falls. You've captured the power of the falls - more evident after a rain and through its brown waters. Great travel shot! rgds.

Hello Z. Love the contrast of the colors here. The scene is very peaceful and quiet, makes me want to go out - but can't! Well exposed image. rgds.

Hi Denniel! This is a photo that reflects the situation nowadays - everything's closed everywhere. Hope stores like this will re-open and go back to normalcy soon. rgds.
