Rakesh, I like this image a lot, it is so storytelling. I like it so much that, with your kind permission, I will outline some flaws IMO. Firstly, the sky on the top, is a bit too light and is perhaps distracting. You might want to eliminate it, or somehow correct it. Secondly, the dry leaves on the bottom right are also a bit distracting, I think that cloning out a few of them would definetely improve the image. Finally, the fact that tyhe horizon is straight, but some of the trees are slightly tilted, is a bit strange. perhaps, you might like to correct this problem with the crop tool, using the perspective option in PS. Apart from those, the image is brilliant and I also like the exposure and the depth that you have captured so beautifully. Well done, great job. Regards - Andreas #2820881

Vikas Garg May 29, 2006

Love this shot!! And for more than the reason that it is a wonderful shot!

Gives me the nostalgic feeling! I have travelled a lot around the region from Delhi to a place called Haldwani in UP. On the way we have such fields of lined up trees and beautiful colors ..I have always wanted to capture it, but it was always someone else driving the bus or car and never managed to stop and take the shot I have wanted to. This shot although I didn't capture it gives me joy seeing someone did the justice to the beautiful roadside!!

Really Beautiful!! #2828963
