Walk on water, a photo from Rajasthan, West

Photographer's Note

Une soirée de mousson à Pushkar. Nous avions diné dans un petit restaurant sur le toit d’un immeuble et quand nous sommes repartis pour rentrer à l’hôtel, nous avions de l’eau jusqu’aux genoux.

*****************************************************

An evening of monsoon in Pushkar. We had dinner in a small restaurant on the roof of a building and when we left to return to the hotel, we had water up to our knees

hello Bernard
Alors çà être à Pushkar pendant la mousson çà doit valoir son pesant d'images si j'en juge par celle-ci ! Impressionnant
Bonne gestion de la lumière artificielle, çà rend vraiment l'atmosphère comme en direct
Bonne soirée, amitiés
Patrick

Hello Bernard,
Wow! That's a lot of water! It's amazing that the man on the cycle can still drive in all that rain. His headlight really emphasizes how hard the water is pouring down. Great exposure, and I like the golden lighting, too.

Hello Bernard - A marvellous image. The mood is really well captured. A terrible storm but what a beautiful capture with excellent fine detail to enjoy all under a golden light. Super. Warm regards rosemary

Ciao Bernard
spero tu non abbia preso un raffreddore.
La foto è particolare, un momento di vita con le difficoltà che la natura ci impone. Belli i riflessi delle luci sull'acqua (sembra un fiume), creano un'atmosfera da film anni 30.
Saluti
Carlo

Bonsoir Bernard
Superbe image d'une rue submerger par le monsoon. Pris dans un instant parfait avec le motocycliste dans l'image. Trés belle couleurs chaleureux aussi.
trés bonne semaine
Daniel

salut Bernard

Quelle aventure!
Ton cliché rend bien compte des dégats de la mousson avec l'éclairage de la moto et les quelques personnes qui se dépêchent dans la rue.
Amicalement

Hello Bernard,
That is a lot of rain! Your viewpoint is excellent and shows the activity in the wet street very well. The golden light has picked up some super detail. The overhead wires add well to the composition and fill the watery space in the FG. An unusual and very successful image.
Kind Regards, Ann

Terrible cette prise ! Bon c'est un peu le chaos, avec ces fils partout, cette voiture et ces gens un peu partout mais la lumière donne une atmosphère incroyable. Bien vu !
