Hi ,
First of all congratulations for your 300TH POST~~
Was there wind at the moment , i see the dust blowing ... Anyways , i like total concept and the frame including the pillars.. However , if you are focusing on those guys , you could have taken the shot from a bit closer from the duo..
just my point of view,
~Sayan~

Hello Aadiil,

Nice photo for its composition but mainly for the lightning putting in evidence the gold tones in opposition to the hard life of the people living there.

Greetings, Aadiil -
First, congratulations on your 300th - this is quite a milestone. This is a great composition with a sad but very real message. Perfect POV with the columns and doorways guiding the eye directly down the center of the image to the homeless people. Sharp details and warm, natural tones. Very nice work.

Hi Aadiil,
Haven't you had this image posted before? I am 100% I've seen it before.
Maybe not from you ...umm....but the image was 100% exactly the same.
Anyway, I am in love with the perspective and the light you have managed to capture.
Superb composition.

Maria

Hi Aadiil, a funny coincidence indeed ! You don't mention the occasion in your title so not many persons will notice I fear - and what an interesting choice as a photo ! It is well in your style but it has something more in it, a more contemporary content that I like, with a human side as well...

Compliments, I think I understand how you feel ; well done !
Best wishes and best regards,
Cath.

Hi Aadiil,
do you always have such a perfect light in India ? It´s amazing. And I like also the centered perspective. The contrast between the architecture and the rest of the circumstances make it interesting and gives a lot of tension to it.
Good one ! Congrats for the 300th !
Cheers Chris

Dear Aadiil,

And, this is the scream at the world...
I was waiting a flood of light today from you...
But, this is an eye opener too...
Where lights feel warm, where rains don't fall down, where a shelter is smiling, man relaxes...
You made the day bright, dear..
Relax, smile..

Hi Aadiil,
I've read that there's lots of palaces in India, that are left without maintenance as current owners are not that rich as former generations. At least the still provide some shelter. Central composition is efficient here. Nice simple and warm colours.
Congratulations on your 300th!

There it is Aadil...your 300th post! Heartiest congratulations. You made us wait for a long time for this. I heard from a colleague who just visited Jaipur that this palace is renovated & looks beautiful. I have to go to Jaipur soon. Perspective is excellent & so is the theme...so very pertinent. Continue to surprise us, in you own unique way, the way that makes you special in this site.

Hi Aadiil,
Congratulations for your 300th post.
I am almost there also, but with my lack of time lately, I won't arrive there before going on holidays. :-)
Despite the sad human situation that you show, it's a great perspective of that place that has seen better days, but still keeps some majesty.
It's only pity that there is a slight blur on the left, but with that light I guess it would be hard to avoid.
Regards, José.

Hello Aadiil! There are two sides of your post, one that we have you around and can enjoy your immense photo work day after day which is a wonderful and special treat to me, but there is also a certain sadness when I look at this photo and how some people have to live and there is nothing left for them than a little shelter, hiding from the heat. Maybe it is the two sides that you have and show that makes your work outstanding ... the yellow-golden light is fantastic, like a dream world. Barbara.

Salam Aadiil,
with this post I believe you know that your posts are wonderfully captured, well composed, beautifully planned and very captivating. The subjects are catchy and the photographic elements are there for many to learn from.
Congratulations Aadiil. Great effort.
as for this one, sometimes I really wonder the irony of taking photographs, the subjects and images are wonderful but the story inside the the capture is very much different.
This post really tell the story of people and its environment and you did it very very well. Not much words, but a lot of thinking is going on.
Really a big thank you for sharing the shot.
