After many requests from my fellow TPF members, and a PM from a very sweet person in particular asking me to shoot a bit more of the Indian streets, I made it a point to keep my camera with me whenever I'm traveling somewhere, and just keep clicking.
This time I tried to think what you guys may have found interesting that I might have ignored as an everyday thing, #3 is an example of that.
Oh, and I messed up the exposure in all of them by more than 1 stop (yet again), so please ignore the noise..
Here are a few pics I took using the D100 en-route to my village today. Unfortunately it's raining heavily, and I don't think I'll be able to head out at all during my brief stay. I'll try my best though, but for the time being please give me your feedback. Is there anything in general that you think is uninteresting in these pics? Or anything you'd like to see? I'm all ears!
#1. Purohitji (The Godman)
#2. The Transporters (Banana Version)
#3. A Random Street shot: Didn't really put any thoughts into this one.
#4. Monday morning newspaper (Missed focus)
#5. Busy Morning!
The next three are a bit different, so are accompanied by a few lines:
#6. The Experiment: I was testing my timing on the camera shutter with this one. The bus (I was in) was moving really fast in the opposite direction of the rickshaw puller in a different lane. I wanted to time it just right, so I get the shot from the window. All of this happened in about four seconds time and I still missed it by half a second, but still was interesting enough for me to post.
#7. The Preacher: This gentleman came to sit by me and we started chatting. It was a funny little chat as we had absolutely nothing in common. He asked me about my family and I told him, he went on to advise me to look after my parents and specially my mother. He then showed me a few passport sized pictures of his, and complained about how badly it was taken. I learned a little about his religion, and suddenly my bus honked, signalling it's departure and I had to run. I asked him if I can take his picture, and he agreed. This is what I got in the 10 seconds I had.. It was a memorable chat!
#8. The Jolly-Army man: This one was taken at least a couple of years back in Sikkim, back then I couldn't tell shutter speed from ISO, and everything was on auto.. And you can tell from the picture, that I really loved over-saturated pictures
Earlier I scrapped it as the army mans face wasn't visible at all, but LR helped me out now that I know how to use it.
Anyways, these folks were from the Indian Army waving at me and my camera. Luckily I got the shot
