[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Khajuraho is a celebration of life in all forms. For a tourist or a traveler, it remains another memento on the travelogue of life. Yet another nirvana. A small matter of perspective.

By simple analysis, erotic depiction seems to have been considered mangala or auspicious, though its stark and profuse presence could be a reflection of the social climate of the times. Probably an attitude where love or alankara and erotic sentiment or sringara were the leisure of affluence. With more leisure, more affluence and with the affluent influencing art, the excessive use of erotica could be explained.

Hi Sudip,
You could have done better here! The subject is very interesting but the picture could be better. The verticality is not ok, the colors are a little "flat" and you could crop some of the figures that doesn't compose the picture.

I'm going to post a workshop to show you the way I would do it (doesn't mean that is wright way!)

Thanks and keep working.
Best regards,
Márcio Costa
