Distant echoes of the Taj!
Posted by Sriram (Chennai, India) on 28 October 2009 in Architecture and Portfolio.
Perspectives from Mehtab Bagh side on a Monday morning! Backdrop of this farm is the stunning Taj!Thanks to the morning hues, was able to achieve a rich tonality thereby a neat overall composition. This one is my favorite from the series!
Do check out some of the themes that I have worked on in the past, esplly:
Colours of Rajasthan:

Lovely only just there and a nice transition of shapes from the domes and spires through the trees to the severe geometry of the paddy(?) fields

You, dear friend, have a great quality of the composing shot to the maximum best. This is just perfect and the tonal range is also so well maintained.

The haze gives a wonderful boost to these brownish toned colours you have all over. The foreground you picked just leads us to the Taj.
Clever composition! Sweet colors!
