Two Women, a photo from West Bengal, East

Photographer's Note

Night, near Outram Ghaat, where it is a veritable bazzar after darkness falls. Long distance buses leaving from nearby stands rev up their engines, and visitors from distant towns mill around in the dark, waiting for a quick meal at the shacks before boarding the buses.

Hi Animesh ,
Classic shot. Like a painting and you have managed to capture the mood and atmosphere is just brilliant. The lights at the further end gives another dimension.
Regards.

Hello Animesh,
Well captured picture of the women waiting in the dark ,perhaps looking for means to return home. The mood and their expression are well portrayed in your picture.Good composition and thanks for the share,
Smitha.

a strange "extraordinarity" in this quiet classics...there is some untold quietness, anxiety, uneasinyness in the poses of these two women...they seem to be quite tall by the way...
best wishes, j.

Stark picture with a good deal of power against that pitch black, inky background. Doesn't have qite the sensual charm of your rainy shots of late but good use of the vertical here. Quality all the way...
Back in Japan now,
Best,
Francis
