Very nice composition, Anjan.
I like the serenity of the picture.
The colour of the water is beautiful.
What's the cause of the reflecting white light? Your photo-flash?

Very well done, very nice point of view. It catches perfectly the atmosphere which I imagine very quiet.

I love it! Perfect Shot.

Excellent POV and pleasant reflection in the well textured water of the sun where this man on his boat with his load stands out !

A very well captured shot, the framing is perfect, and sets the scene well.

In this image too, your perspective is from the top.
How did you manage it here, Anjan?
Stunningly beautiful image. Though the boat occupies the centre of the composition, it does not look out of place at all.
Well done!

Hi Anjan,
One of the best photos coming out of West Bengal. From the top angle shot it seems you have shot from the top of the barrage. Great composition, the boat, the boatman, the shining water - evrything is perfect - so is your image. Congratulations.

Hi Anjan - fantastic perspective, very pure image, the vertical format is well suited for this, great work.

Very good - great viewpoint & composition, that tiny bit of red adds in a touch of colour.

A great shot, the details of waves is superb and so the colour composition,
fantastic

Very good shot Anjan! I really like the way you've framed it!
Luci

Hi Anjan
This is a brilliant shot. It is enhanced by the grey tone of the water which reflects the light in a subdued way. The framing and POV is special and the detail impressive. A fantastic shot.

Very beuatiful picture from above. I love the composition, the boat itself and the man with his gesture. On top of it there are all the circles in the water. A true beauty, Congratulations!

Hi Anjan,
I looked your small gallery and I see stunning pictures. This one is full of beauty with the perfect light around that man.
A wonderful composition with a great perspective. I'll look out for more.

Hi Anjan,
htis really impresive perspective. Perfect crop. Could not be better. Thanks to "oily" water and the reflections picture looks... I don't know... kind of sterile(?).
Well done.

Jan

Dear Anjan
This photo really 'shines' though...quite brilliant in composition, excellently timed. The ripples, the reflection, the position of the boat is perfect. I'm putting this into my favs.

Did you take this from a bridge? once again a very good POV and composition.

Great POV and framing of the elements, Anjan. I think that the reflection of sunlight really enhances this image. Thank you for the image and your note about the shot.
Best,
José

Hi Anjan,

I like your POV here, composition is excellent. The light on the water and the steering stick running diagnonal also are nice touches. Well done.

Thats a beautiful one Anjan, surely a winner with such suoer colours, composition and textures. I also like the focus here and the clarity. The texture that the ripples are caui=sing on the water is also nice. A beautiful compoisition and framing.
