Your images look like they're straight out of a magazine. They never fail to inspire and awe me. Did you just happen to come across this scene, or did you ask them to sit this way? Spellbinding either way!

4/28/2006 4:57:33 AM

Wonderful mood and composition in this outstanding image Rakesh!

4/28/2006 5:06:58 AM

Thank you so much my friends for your thoughtful words!
Jill, they were all sitting by themselves. It was 7 in the morning, I just noticed them, and there was no hint in my mind to capture them. The sun was coverd by a thick layer of fog. I kept shooting here and there. Suddenly the sun started showing up on their side. When I looked in the view finder, I thought this is something I am looking for. I moved and composed them and this was all by the grace of God I could do this.

4/28/2006 7:38:57 AM

This is such a moving image, Rakesh...the mood you've captured with the sun just breaking through the fog is exceptional!!! The man is obviously absorbed in quiet contemplation!:)

4/28/2006 8:30:43 AM

An image that is not only stunning and perfect in composition Rakesh, but it also can have different interpretations.
