The Market of Bangles Photo

Photographer’s Note

The markets around Hyderabad's Charminar are really lively, full of photographable subjects. I was, however, a little shy, because the area pullulates with Muslim women in full 'naqab' who, i thought would have objections to being photographed. This was a hip shot that captures part of the legendary market of bangles.

Hi Bishan,
Please find below my remarks:
+ colours: I like very much their intensity
+ various objects and lively scene: muslim women in black, boy in red...
+ interesting daily life shot
- the half person on the left - distracts the composition
- compression: it's too high - the quality could have been better...

Regards,
Adam

nice candid shot in a market. but i think if you could have concentrated on that little girl more, result would have been better. tfs.

Hey Bishan,

I have no real problem with this photograph. I quite like it - its a lively scene, which fits together quite well. I must admit, I find it quite difficult to take pictures in the street in India, as there is just so much going on. Its difficult to get somthing cohesive. However, I like this effort yu have made as it a clear representation of what you saw. Ok, there are crpped and chopped bodies everywhere, but I dont mind... I like it...
