Veiw froma cab, a real traveling mood, intersting glimpse of the street through the window, and the bike useful detail.

Yes, love the way this is framed through the window, there is a sort of cinematic feel to it as if you were taking a glimpse to the street on your left while moving soon to another image of the scenery. I would never imagine this kind of surroundings can be found in Georgia (or anywhere in the states). It is perhaps a feeling I'm getting from all the electric wires between the facades.

Yes - that's the way we so often are looking at the world nowadays. And you show it nicely. Thin pieces of views cut out and framed with safe and cofortable car window, seen from inside of the car... Nice idea and greatly realised.

Hey Animesh!
I think I get the idea of what you tried to show in this shot, however, I feel that there are too many distractions that take away the attention from the cycler, which is the main character here...through the cab window it is very hard to see the environment, and in many cases it's better to just go down (I know, this was one of the shots that it's either this composition or NO composition).
You got here a nice try, but I would rather see the scene from a foot...
TFS!

Hello Animesh,
Intriguing shot. It definitely has a cinéma vérité feeling to it and quick social observation. It also reminds me of some contemporary advertising in its aesthetic. I like it very much.

Oh man this is good,Animesh, the way you frame the picture with the interrior of the car and the driver's arm. Really top stuff - love it.
Best,
Francis

...i for one like this very way of framing the scene - thsough the car window, i agree with chen that it would be nice to have a chance to see the same place from the foot but imho the whole charm of the image is exactly this "by the way we are here" view...
best wishes, j.

Animesh,
I love the way you have put us there right in the moment as if we were sitting in the passenger seat.The framing is fantastic.

Cheers
Peter
