    Pushcar, India October 2009

    Almost ten years ago, I was photographing like this. I still enjoy this kind of shots. 24mm moderately wide angle.

    Love the colors in this image but, IMO it is the people looking at the camera that makes this image quite nice...

    Your more recent images are much stronger than this one, but with 10 more years of photographic experience that is not much of a surprise. I assume that this is the famous camel market festival in that town?

    The repeating yellow colours make this image more special.

    I like all of these images. The colours are magnificent and I actually like the way the crowd in the first image is drawn to the camera or the photographer (since you are likely to stand out!), or both.

    Colours are strong in these people's habits and traditions.

    Love the colours in Rajahstan - thanks for sharing. I was there, Pushkar, over thirty years ago. I think I must get out my slides and see what they look like now.

    I am sure you will have great and pleasant surprises !
    Now, you will look and see the images with other eyes.
    What is the correct way to say so in English ?

    Love this image Antonio. The reasons are: the colors are fantastic; Nicely composed to capture the nature of the scene; the expressions are wonderful and draw the viewer in because of the emotions displayed... you have expressions of pleasure at being photographed, and expressions of not so pleased, and anywhere in between.
    Very nicely done, I think even 10 years ago your talents were obvious.
    Thank you for sharing this.

    Thank you Shanon.
    I am not that good. I just like to photograph carefully trying to learn all the time and implementing the quality of my shots. Just for fun.
    Let me look for another one, done in the same place and time and from the other side of the road
    Here it is !

    Antonio, very nice. Wonderful colors and the goods are beautiful. I love the expression of the man, so casual yet his eyes draw one in.
    Your modesty is wonderful, but your photography is even better

    Fantastic series! The first shot is quite busy but I think you captured it really well. Absolutely love the second shot! Very very nice.

    Just great! I particularly liked the last image. The yellow scarf contrasting the lady's face.
    Cheers Ole
