Street view, a photo from Tamil Nadu, Sud

Photographer's Note

The picture shows one of the main street in the little town of Gandarvakottai. It illustrates waste collection issue. Some roofings are made of palm leaves. There are more cycles and scooters than cars.

Hello Miguel,
Another unflattering view from this typical south Indian town. Not beautiful but realistic, and as a photo technically excellent.
Regards,
Gert

Maybe a random street sight for people living there, but for many of us it's an eye-opener. The messi-ness of it all, the crowded scene, the shacks...lots of "couleur locale" but not in a typical tourist kind of way. This is a shot I appreciate. Tfs, Miguel.

Cheers

Benny

Nice afternoon.

This poor neighborhood is a typical example of third-world scenery, Miguel.
Harsh as it looks, still it is a superb document about life in the poor Tamil-Nadu region, which is mostly overlooked by the local government. Very good technical details.
Best regards,
Ike

Bonjour Miguel

A warts and all shot of this impoverished Indian Provincial town. It reminds me a little of the area around Dhaka airport, where I saw people smashing old bricks for recycling. No escaping the squalor where-ever you look. Thanks for sharing.

Hello Miguel,

Another very real and clearly illustrated view from India.
The street looks busy with cycles and pedestrians, but the details of the litter grab first attention. I suppose that problems, like litter, depend so much on education and a government that is prepared to create a means of disposing of unwanted items.
You have chosen a good vantage point, using the converging lines of the road, as a natural guide.

Kind regards,
Bev :-)
I have not visited India but have been to Pakistan where there were areas with similar streets.

Hello Miguel,
A good photo of this town. There is a lot to see in good sharpness and excellent clarity. The composition is nicely balanced and I like the perspective down the road.

Hi Miguel,

You have capture well a daily life scene. The length of the street is giving depth to the composition. The point of view is showing the details of the houses and of the buildings. Have a nice day.

Hello Miguel Another picture showing the typical Indian street view. There should be some animals here, camels, donkeys, elephants, whatever.

Kind regards MAlgo

Hi Miguel
yes, this is the sad reality in many Indian cities, thats too bad. But as a photo its real, its real reporting of the daily life, and technically is clear, sharp, excellent colours and lighting...lots to like in that regard. Seeing the rooftops are interesting too. cheers

looks this place is poorest than those I crossed at north. dirty water and the plastic is a terrible touch of the place. I hope this town got a clean aspect in the next years.

take care
