Hi dude, how's the Pav Bhaji going!!! Ye kiska band bajwa rahey ho? I like the way the old master is standing in between. The contrast levels are a bit high though. The drum on the right is cool...Bajatey Raho!!!
Happy Deepawali.

I like the way your framed the image. Reminds me of a shot I saw on N.G. a while ago. The only critique I have to add is the image seems a little over-contrast and dark. Other than that it's good...

Hi Rajeev,
A very pleasing composition. I love the placement of the conductor in between two colorfully clad members. Very good work. Best wishes. Danilo

Again very strong composition is shown by you. This is the strength of your creativity. Well come to colors as life is full of colors not black and white.

HE IS A JOLLYGOOD FELLOW.........I REMEMBER PRAHAR....
GREAT SHOT...THE CONTRAST BETWEEN THE OLD MAN WITHN EXPERIENCE TOTALLY ENGOSSED IN THE MUSIC AND THE PERSON JUST BEHIND HIM AT THE FAR END JUST BEHIND HIS RIGHT SIDE...NOT KNOWING WHATS GOING ON BEHIND HIM IS WHAT APPEALS TO ME....THE DRUM WITH THE SPRINGS SHOWN......
THIS PIC IS A BEAUTIFUL CONTRAST OF THE FORMAL FOREGROUND AND THE INFORMAL BACKGROUND...
THE DEPTH............................

Hello friend.
Bloddy brilliant composition. How do I say, very natural. Almost the vantage point of a young child watching the aging musicians creating their music. Great strong colors and I like the repetition of the red stripe on their pants...it creats a wonderful triangle arrangement. Very nice indeed. I will miss the B&W, but I'm sure we'll see it again.
Regards brother,
CHris.

The POV is excellent done in between the two other players and colors are well balanced and saturated, the contrast a bit hard and total impression a bit dark, I think this could be slightly corrected still, it gives the impression of a B&W in color a bit.
A Happy Diwali to you and your family.

Your first colorful picture after a long month....is just great.Colors and contrast are so powerful.Perfect POV and framing for showing us this orchestral arrangement!
But still I wait more b&w pictures,because you became artist in this kind of photos!
Best wishes

Perhaps its a good idea in this one to go with color, but I hope you reconsider. B/w is good:) Keep trying. The framing like Bennet said is quite interesting, has a nice photojournalistic style to it.

hahaha That was a funny note dear friend. I don't know why Teo want to kill you, I was loving the B&W series. But that new one colorful photos are fantastic. That one is ful of life. The band master did a good work with the musicians?

Hi Rajeev. I enjoyed your b/w shots, too, and may critique a couple. But was impressed by the viewpoint and the bright reds in this striking shot. To be honest, I would crop it a little all round, especially on the left, and reduce the contrast which is a little extreme as can be seen in the white tunics. However, the grey day on which this was taken certainly justified some PP to brighten the colouring. Once again, great viewpoint you achieved by getting down behind the musicians like that! Well done.
Regards,
Andrew

Very nice compo, Rajeev. The croping at the to really works here - a very dynamic image with deth. My only reservation would be the color which is both dark and perhaps a little oversaturated, at least on my screen.
All the best,

Nice photojournalistic shot here. It may be a bit too saturated and contrasty, but that would be easy to edit in PS.
You captured the scene well, but in a similar situation you may try for a POV that eliminates the people in the background if possible, keeping the focus on the musicians only.
Great Job.
Aloha, JB
