I can give a link of a pic of Tajmahal captured & edited by me, which produced a kind of dream like effect quite different from the usual ones we see <A HREF="http://kalyansdreams.blogspot.com/2007/02/monument-of-love.html " REL="nofollow">http://kalyansdreams.blogspot.com/2007/02/monument-of-love.html</A>. Hope you don't mind providing the link.<BR/><BR/>Anyway as for the shot, well captured & composed, but I think the blue tinge in the mountain, if reduced a bit, can be more interesting.Kalyan Panjahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00806730473428069202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6722707846528500554.post-11413236293430784892007-05-22T17:25:00.000+03:002007-05-22T17:25:00.000+03:00@ Sigma, Thanks for the feedback, see my next post...@ Sigma, Thanks for the feedback, see my next post :-)Pijushhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06687925642301965831noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6722707846528500554.post-69036685310674589772007-05-22T16:48:00.000+03:002007-05-22T16:48:00.000+03:00Nice pic.

I am not biased in favour of or against manipulating pictures with s/w, but I think that the colors are a little too strong in this pic.Sigmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08300547373292021313noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6722707846528500554.post-11488032254016746082007-05-21T23:22:00.000+03:002007-05-21T23:22:00.000+03:00@Cuckoo, Thanks for your comment and coming here. ...@Cuckoo, Thanks for your comment and coming here. But bit disappointed as you did not rate it. Let me describe my logic, but I very much appreciate your theory. <BR/><BR/>Well, I had a discussion with one of my close friends today regarding the same topic. He did not like my pics either because I play with colour. Well, I can assure most of the eminent photographers play with either colour or camera. Now one can argue very well that playing will camera is ok as camera is for capturing the moments in a nicer way, that’s the technique, which is called the art of photography. But playing in photoshop or picasa is representing artificial image of a true picture. <BR/>But when I was coming back from Santorini, came across with a professional photographer, who was using Polaroid lenses to make the sky deep blue. Well if I can make it by Graduated tint, the resultant is same. The balanced edit and colour combination can make a picture better. <BR/>It is something like the Continental and Indian cuisine. The European’s always complain that spices kill the taste of vegetables and meats; while the Indians argue that it never kills rather enriches the taste. So, its more depends on the creator and viewer, what he/she will like. I appreciate both concepts, follow the Indian one :-)<BR/><BR/>I will post one original and one edited one in next post. You can compare it very easily :-)<BR/>Please keep commenting with constructive criticisms, which helps me to know different viewpoints.Pijushhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06687925642301965831noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6722707846528500554.post-52492450653425836112007-05-21T20:52:00.000+03:002007-05-21T20:52:00.000+03:00Again same question ..

Right ?<BR/><BR/>My all pictures are always as they are clicked.<BR/><BR/>The picture as it is beautiful specially the red sand.. just awesome but to be frank I didn't like the blue coloured mountain. Too much of blue it has.<BR/><BR/>I am not rating it.Cuckoohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09593822080382578122noreply@blogger.com
