@kiranravi: I liked the bokeh and the colors in your shots. Which gear you used?

tsk1979 · 22nd September 2009, 14:10

Actually with the white elephant getting attention is not a problem. Even the asses stop and gawk

@tsk
A little more of the sky an a little less of the green would have balanced the shot perfectly! Leh is so pretty! I will surely go to this place next time I come to India!

Thankfully, that has never happened to me

That happens to me only when I do macros. Since composition is very difficult in macro, my QC process deletes anything I shoot.

Thanks TG, I will crop this shot differently and then upload... what say?

Torqueguru · 23rd September 2009, 14:29

Yes surely..go ahead! And here is what I did with your hill shots, composited with one of my shots, for a background plate for the project. I decided to post it here, since it required 2 well composed photographs to bring it to what it's looking now. We make a decent team eh?
