nice picture rakesh,
great potential in the picture....the perspective depth of the picture is cut too near by the walls in the background. i agree with you that the evening sun is dying but the picture looks a bit flat cuz you've opened up the aperture thinking that the picture wud go dark if you don't but i think otherwise, if it had been a bit low key the picture would've totally gotten a dramatic look.
and lastly...the boy in the frame should've not seen you....i guess you agree with me.....great going buddy...with regards..sakthi

Hi Rakesh,
Perfect composition.
Nice atmosphere you create here with this soft light and colours.
The aperture you choose here is the right one...because like this the boy almost looks like is going to jump out from the image.
Regards
Teresa

Hi Rakesh,
nice composition, and the light has worked well...
On the lighter side, i can forget counting sheep to get some sleep... the cows will serve the purpose henceforth!

Hi Rakesh,
Very good capture of the boy in front the cows. Nice sharpness and great light. I can see the cattle is from the brand Nelore, the most common in Brazil, which import thousands of animals from India on the last century.
Take care

Hi Rakesh,
Very interesting picture indeed. Nice DOF. It gives a very unique perspective to the picture. I like it. Only maybe contrast could be strengthened a little bit.
regards.

Both pictures are very different in content and mood...I prefer the other one as is more personal, however, this one has an equal visual impact...

really really nice...that evening sun is beautiful - I'm sure you had a nice time shooting...

anil-ahuja (327) 2006-10-20 1:14

Hi Rakesh,

This is one of your best photos because of the drama and colours like a watercolor painting. I believe if you crop the photo tighter on top (till tops of the horns) the composition will improve. Thanks for sharing.

Lovely photo! Something I missed, when I came home from a tour in India was the animals. It felt so natural with animals around you, even in the cities.

Hello Rakesh!
Excellent prsentation of this youngsters and the numerous cattle. Colours are so perfect despite the difficult light conditions, that the whole photo looks like oil painting.
Congratulations!
