I just discovered this was yours as I opened it - I might have guessed - I'm not sure i would agree to it being a decisive moment but there is a delightful humour here - the Goddess reduced to humanity - but with the gift the Gods at her fingertips - we have magical, technology provided abilities that our ancestors would drool over!

A very nice juxtaposition - i like the compositional spaces here - I think it all works very nicely!

best wishes Kev

Haha, wonderful shot, Animesh, the "stone age" woman is evolved into the businesswoman with a cellphone... times are changing...so are we... but what if we lose our touch with the earth and become Borgs? Just musing...
Wonderful b/w, great composition, subject!

The mirror pose is quite a catch. With all the graphic backgrounds (the horizontal lines, the squares, the circles on the white) the figures stand out well, surprisingly. The title is fitting. I really like the grain, too- good work!

my first reaction was: 'is it an evolution to go to a Canon A75 (almost like mine!)'? it´s certainly not, not in your hands, Animesh.
great composition, the mirror pose. poor us, attached to those eletronic handcuffs...

Incredibly well seen, Animesh, ironic, urbane, profound even.
Delightful capture.
Congrats!

Classic Animesh. This is a lovely composition. I really like the faint reflection in the shop window, too.

It would look great as a square shot too, if you cropped the right side, but I like the depth given by the darkness on the right.

I know you're not around much these days and neither am I, but I'm glad to have a chance to say hi.
