This could have been a nice image. I am bothered by the horizon, something you could have worked on. The other thing is that i see part of the face of a tourist.
Otherwise, i do like the light here, and i also like vrindavan.

Very interesting shot; even with the slanted horizon (easy fix) and the tourist... :-)

The haze in the distance makes the characters stand out nicely.

PERFECT!

without even realisng it when the photo was taken you have made this perfect.

I LOVE the tourist with the obscured face.
it works so well and this is why:
here is a man that has tarvelled probably to the other end of the earth to seek spiritual enlightenment here at the banks of yamuna. Yet the old sanyassi, in a state of meditiation doesnt even realise he is there!

The horizon on slant works well with this underetaning of this photo - because in a strange way the whole event is off-slant.

i love it just the way it is!
