Indian House! Photo

Photographer’s Note

Walking through the calm streets of Fort Kochi, unlikely blend of medieval Portugal, Holland and an English country village...

Fort Kochi reflect the long history of global connections of Kerala .
Here, 60% of the population is Hindu, 20% Muslim, and 20% Christian (in the past, an important Jew community lived here);
Influences are Indian, Arabian, British, Portuguese, Dutch, French....

This vibrates with colour. Nicely composed. The texture of everything but the wall is a bit odd: a bit grainy and noisy - perhaps due to oversharpening. Then there are pixellations in the shadows, suggesting a low resolution camera, or this being a scan. Not sure how you could fix that.

Bonjour Christian,
Bienvenu sur TE! Superbe photo pour une première!
Ce rouge est incroyable! Et il va très bien avec la couleur marron/orangée des volets.

Cant imagine a house like this in kerala,my home town. I never came across anything like this in kerala. The credit goes to the great traveller in you. The colours are brillant. Excellent composure . Perfect framing. Thanks for sharing, if you have the whole house please post.

Hi Christian,
I like the vivid colors that resulted from this shot. However I think its a little saturated. But overall, it's really good!

Keep shooting!

Regards,
Che

La foto es fantástica , los colores muymuy vivos e intensos , son lo que más llaman la atención y explotan a la vista . La perspectiva es muy buena , quizás no se cual habría sido el resultado de haber encuadrado la ventana en el centro de la composición e intentado desaturar un poco la intensidad del color . En todo caso así me gusta con tu nota tan ilustrativa . Buen fin de semana , Amicálement
