Hi Aadiil,
you have a superb eye for those architecture and colours. Well placed and well presented stairway. I wonder about the sense here as it seems to be a window and not a door?
Lieben Gruss, Ulf

Floydian (30970) 2008-06-09 1:07

Hi Aadiil,
What a great creative shot, what a great eye in seeing this. That red all around is wonderful, but it's the arch with the stairs in the background which makes the shot...great, absolute great..!!!
Have a nice day, Henk

filidor (613) 2008-06-09 1:29

Wow what's a simply, awashed with bloody intense red shot! Great spot! I am going to N Delhi November this year so I think I will visit Jantar Mantar as well. :)

eversmile (4086) 2008-06-09 2:59

Wow! What a singular picture! The colors are bloody marvellous and the POV shows us a very unexpected detail... the whole is very mysterious, seems dreamlike, a bit as an Escher construction... A very strong composition, in an uncluttered style.
Congratulations!
Marine

kschanna (2157) 2008-06-09 3:00

AOA Aadil,

You present this red in all its majesty. Jai Singh's Jantar Mantar, its a pity that in modern school curriculums, particularly in the sub-continent, western scholars seem to be crowned for all the historical discoveries and scientific advancement while disregarding the contributions of the sub-continental wise-men. More information in the note would definetly add to the beauty of this exquisite composition.

Wasalam

Wanda1 (10233) 2008-06-09 3:34

Hi Aadil,
That is some colour...so bright, so strong, so vibrant, and the composition with the black line intersecting the wall and the view of the stairway through the window is simply great!
Very nice work!
Regards
Wanda

KLB (14822) 2008-06-09 3:36

Hello Aadill

What a great shot !
The way you've composed is just excellent. The aperture creates a mysterious atmosphere... What can we find behind this arch ?
A great, deep red for a strong impact, very eyecatching.
Wonderful composition, it's like a painting. I really like it.

Karine

smarcell (12407) 2008-06-09 3:39

Merline (6574) 2008-06-09 3:45

That red is simply stunning, awsome. Love the artistic way you have composed this image, the opening and the stair...could not be better placed, so symbolic too, and poetic. Superb work, minimalistic, less is more, yes, simply wonderful !

Hello Aadiil,

What a punch of colour!
Nicely minimalistic as well with that one window off center and a bird and stair behind it. Nice. A clean white frame. Works well.
Still hoping that one day you will add the camera details and settings to your photographs ;-).

Greetings!

Hi Aadiil,
a poetic photograph of a poetic building. You put the opening at the perfect position. Great tones of red, too..
Compliments, Christian

Photo65Net (43078) 2008-06-10 11:39

Aadiil,
Superb one !
This red is so eyecatcher, and the stairs are just perfect to break the uniformity.
Great job,
Regards,
JB.

bapun1 (801) 2008-06-10 12:27

Very neat and very effective. The red is unbelivable. The black line and the staircase...only a very gifted and keen eye like your can spot it.

It is, like almost all your postings, very inspiring and educative.

Regards,
Bishnu.

CONGRATS.

albertz (2310) 2008-06-11 2:37

Fantastic shot Aadiil! The contrast of the stairway from the totally orange wall is excellent and you have seen this well with your eye. Simple but outstanding.

Simplicity rules!
Well seen...
Well done...
The final result is attractive to my eyes and mind!

pboehringer (768) 2008-06-11 18:22

Aadiil,
the composition is again as minimal as possible and with strongest colors. Personally I would have probably placed the arch and staircase a little bit more to the right. The detail of the pigeon there is absolutely the icing on the cake.
Peter

Angshu (30896) 2008-06-11 20:42

Hello Aadiil
Words fail me, my eyes are glued to the screen. Yes I've seen Jantar Mantar too, been there only once, but did not have the eye to capture anything like this! The saturated red just screams out saying Look at me, leading us to those stairs...the pegion? well the icing on the cake! In front of this any other picture from Jantar Mantar is plain mundane. Well, who's the master, this picture speaks aloud for itself.
With Regards
Angshu

dumbo (3860) 2008-06-12 9:08

Wow! It's so... Red! I like this abstract view and that amazing red color.

Hello Aadiil, fantastic this crop the color and texture of the wall frame the little scene (stairs) in an wonderful way.
Very well seen and executed.

pastadog (12093) 2008-06-13 4:22

Very intriguing shot, Aadiil, in two respects: a. your POV? b. scale, what's a stairway like that doing in such a window? In addition special color and contrast level set. Regards, Daniel

fulvio52 (8314) 2008-06-13 4:45

Hello Aadiil,
this is really something else... Simply amazing what you've been able to achieve in terms of light, color, and texture, with the available scenery! Awesome, my compliments.
And thanks for passing by my "Zaanse Schans Evening" post (yesterday, from The Netherlands), I greatly appreciate.
Have a nice weekend, my friend. I'll be seeing you around.
Ciao,
Fulvio.

trekks (14230) 2008-06-15 6:04

hi Aadiil

Wow, very good shot of the opening to give such a unique view of the stairs. Good capture. The bright red wall has a strong contrast to make the photo standing out and good placement of the opening box.

Hello Aadiil,
very nice minimalistic shot with the steps to looks like to are found in the wall.I like the formation of the window as the 'strange' color for the European eyes.Excellent presentation and well done.

Have a nice Sunday,Danos

PixelTerror (81500) 2008-06-23 2:25

Hi Aadiil
Ooooh so much red, how nice :-) This red dominant focuses the eye even more on the only noticeable detail that you have wisely off centered, nice image.
Have a nice day JY

hispic (6880) 2008-06-23 3:21

Hello Aadiil,
The colour of vermilion is keenly beautiful. Tiny white placed from center a little right is also exquisite.

Orange. What a color! I love the simplicity of your photo and the fact that there is something alive in it. That pigeon has a prime role on this photo of yours. Love it!

avene (9936) 2008-07-02 11:08

hello Aadiil,
fantastic shot, the combination of minimal details and bold colour creates a powerful photo. the textures of the wall prevent it from becoming boring, but I particularly like how the shadows add 3D feeling to the scene. great photo, my compliments.

Kristine

alftrek (2300) 2008-07-07 0:14

You have good eyes to see this and come out with a simple but superb composition. The doorway really punch out from the red wall.

Alfred

burGu (3903) 2008-07-07 4:08

Incredible! Too red to be real!
Reminds me of a strategy game I was playing when I was a child. In that game, all of the places were painted by red in order to cause disturbance to the player so that he/she cannot concentrate on the actual game.
Your photo has nothing to do with disturbance but it is full of attraction. I wonder if it is really such bright or if you have done anything pp? If you did anything I really would like to original version.
Best regards,
Burcu

carolskie007 (459) 2008-07-08 4:03

It's like a 3D graphical art painted on a red canvass. The elements are effectively engaging that pleases every eyes laid on it.

You're artistic POV that goes beyond what seems to be ordinary is truly awe-inspiring.

TFS :o)

carol

noborders (14250) 2008-07-08 4:19

Perfect illusion !!! But it's the reality...
Very intelligent framing, - to be honnest I prefer your perspectives with golden light and even more the persons in your photos (f.i., the sleepers of New Delhi - "Night life"), but really this kind of graphics - if masterly shot, are also wonderful. The details like the traces of paintings, the pigeon and the colours are fantastic.
Congratulations,
Cath.

Hello Aadiil, The vibrant red pulsates before our eyes, the glimpse of stairway is intriguing and the thin black horizontal line adds tension to the scene.
The texture and details are beautifully captured.
A fabulous image!

cherryripe (17263) 2008-07-28 9:17

Nice and simple but effective. The bright orange is stunning. The line cuts through the first third well although I would have just slight placed the stairs a little more to the right.

Hi Aadiil,
Great vibrant shot! I love that you can see the details in the wall so well....it seems that every stroke of the paintbrush is visible. And the opening adds another layer of depth to this shot along with the staircase. Your photos are always well composed, and this one is no exception. I like your frame choice as well, and the sharpness is excellent.
Thanks for sharing!
