[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
this is Late Kalam Singh and his wife in Tunganath. I shot this way back in 1993 when I went to Tunganath (and for trekking in the Himalayas) for the first time.
We stayed at Kalam Singh's 'Choti' - 'Chandrashila Hotel'. Kalam Singh was Bachhan Singh's relative, and as all Bengali trekkers know, Bachhan Singh was Late Umaprasad Mukherjee's guide in this part.
At the backdrop is Chaukhamba which I have made BW and blurred to make these very peaceful and hospitable persons prominent. I have also lessened saturation to bring an 'old' tone.
I scanned the photo from a very old print. Naturally some problems would be evident.
I think all trekkers who visited Tunganath in the 90s must remember this man and would be happy to see his photo.
I also feel nostalgic.
The nice persons are no more, but the show must go on....

This looks cut and paste to me. Maybe if you past the original without too much attacking the background would be good to compare.

Hi Indrajit,
nice mood captured ecept for the overexposed bit,there is too much sun.

Bonjour Indrajit,
Un beau travail,mais la découpe des personnages se voit fort,sinon j'aime bien l'ensemble.
Bonne Année
Joseph

the thumbnail looked excellent. but on enlargement, it seems to lack quality. may be it is because you scanned it. your note makes it a valuable picture
