Incredible India

liiintz · Sep 15, 2011

As a sophomore, I'm lucky to be chosen as an Exchange participant for Global Internship Program of AIESEC.Having spent 1 month and a half for this program in India, I saw my self growing up alot and especially, my love for street life photography has begun ... Now I will show you the pictures from my trip and I hope to receive a lot of feedback to improve myself

Part 1:

My project in India is "Rural Development". We had many field trips to the slum, the village which gave us an insight to the poverty there. Here are some pictures from the Slum. This slum is in better conditions than those ones in "Slumdog millionaire".

how lucky you are to have travelled and visited such a spectacular country and culture. Great shots, well done!

Some real successes here.
They could benefit from some editing but when you have more time I'm certain you'll get back to them.

I really like Photos 3, 5 and 7 in particular, they tell a story.
Well done!

And these following pictures are from outside the Festival. This captured the image of beggars waiting for their food (actually, it's the waste food from the restaurant)

Very interesting set of photos documenting life in a part of the world unfamiliar to a lot of people. From a technical point of view I can't help but notice a lack of contrast to your images. This might be your preferred processing style since it is a feature of all the images.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but did you pull those out of a National Geographic? Because it certainly looks like those could be from Nat Geo. Those should be in NG.
