Photographer’s Note

HI ,

This is my second post from my durga puja series.
This is another special ' PANDALS ' that was created during the recent Durga Puja .. The entire structure is man made art and skills .
On every street or district there are ' PANDALS' during this festival and this shot was taken from the PUJA of HATIBAGAN district .
The construction of these ' PANDALS ' starts just few months before the festival and are removed after the festival is over .
Note the hard work of 4 months lasts only for 4 days which is the duration of this festival .
If you guys want more information on Durga PUJA simply go to google and search by ' DURGA PUJA ' .

Hi senthil, youve captured this very well and with a dramatic use of the decorations leading all the way to the idols. the lights and the glowing hues have been well used. the eprspective is superb

Hello, sayan,

Very nice photo. But, to me, the picture lacks clarity - it is a bit blurred.

A tripod would be a good idea at 1/5 exposure...

hello Sayan

Such interesting graphic pattern that you have composed here to give effect of repetition but I think it is a pity that focus sharpness is lacking due to f/2.8 used for shallow DOF.

I would say at least focus on important part of the scene.

tfs, bill

Hello Sayan
Difficult to capture, handheld, looking up with a 1/5 exposure...but quite well done here. The clarity is good in the near roof, fading away as we move deeper. Not simple is the exposure as well, that's why Ma Durga has become OE. But a laudable effort...look fwd. for more Durga Puja pictures.
Regards
Angshu
