Lovers Legs! Photo

Photographer’s Note

This was taken in the old (Moghul era) Lalbagh Fort in Old Dhaka.

The old palace was set in beautiful well-kept grounds. This particular outer wall appeared to be the local hangout for young counters. Each couple tightly squeezed inside each architectural recess.

I highlighed the couple's legs trying to capture their privacy.

Fantastic shot Arif!
great idea to took only the legs and the wall!
the contrast between the grey floor and wall with the colored pants is magic!

Hi Arif,

I just came back from Dhaka and Chittagong today.

I love Dhaka somehow, especially Old Dhaka, the people, the business etc. This is a nice one above, you created your own style I can see. Have you seen mine from the Hindu Street?

Cheers Thomas

Surprising you didn't get more points for this brilliant shot. Amazing contrast between the legs and the grey background. Good one.

Hi Arif,
Me again! Very funny one! You have a great eye to be able to see the lines, to see what would be a good composition, a very good way to frame your pictures. I'm impressed. My only wish is to see the first foot on the right side of this one. It seems that the toes are painted. Nevertheless, a very good one!
Claire
