Burning Souls

Uploaded: June 16, 2013

Description

f/11, 30 seconds. 32 mm
I went out at night, to shoot the moon, and discovered that I don't know how to shoot the moon. I was at a burning ghat, across the Yamuna River, in Delhi.
I turned and shot the scenery around. I tool this shot, hoping to create a slightly eerie effect, with the street light shining on to the fires burning the dead bodies.

I have to shoot for this assignment again. As soon as it stops raining!
