    Life on the river bank - Cat : Street

    Recently, during last 3-4 days, I have posted some pictures of humans. All these pictures are taken at a river bank, where people do the work of sand excavation from the river. They have developed their temporary houses there. I have tried to show case their routine life though the series of my these pictures. Here are two more from those.

    Your C&C will be highly appreciated.

    Regards,

    Tejal

    Tejal,

    Nice series, I hope you continue with this exercise. Looking at your EXIF data, it seems that you are trying to keep ISO as low as possible, I can understand why but I think it's affecting the sharpness of your subjects. Although most of your subjects appear to be stationary, there is still movement and any shutter speed below 1/250 will not be fast enough to compensate; especially when handholding the camera. Just my opinion. Keep them coming.

    Very good. Reminds me of my trip to India nearly twenty years ago - seems like just the other day.

    Both images up to your high standard Tejal, the only thing would have been some eye contact but thats just being picky.
    Well done

    You are very much right. It was a little cloudy morning and if you have noticed for some of my pic, we have already discussed about less sharpness. Agree with you about the shutter speed. I have tried to maintain but now will make it sure to keep more than 250 for sharp image. . Many thanks John

    Thanks Greg . Wanted to take candid moments, so avoided eye contact. I have some shots in which I was forced to capture pic with eye contact. I will upload those too shortly .
