November 2023 - Dancer Under the Moon
Original
About the Image(s)
This image was taken during February in 2023. It was in the Indian Desert Festival in Jaisalmer, where the rich & traditional cultural heritage was showcased. On many such occasions we visited many historical important places with the traditional dresses and local beauties.
They are very enriched experiences, one should visit and explore them with ample time. What a nice event that we experienced.
I hope you enjoy the image and feedback is welcome.

Hi Kamal - Beautiful cultural image from an interesting vantage point. The colors are rich and don't compete. Your aspect ratio of 2:3 is nice. Perhaps try an aspect ratio of 3:4 so that it takes off some of the empty sky above the moon - a minor adjustment really - purely a personal choice. I like the simplicity of the composition. Well captured! Posted: 11/18/2023 22:09:09
Hi Darcy,
Greetings.
Thank you for your kind words. Your suggestion of 3:4 aspect ratio could be a better choice. I will surely try this sometime later with the image. I appreciate your kind words on the image.
Kindest regards.

Hi Kamal,
What a beautiful shot! I love the colors and the glimpse into this traditional dance and costume. I love that you cropped in from the left. I agree with Darcy that a bit more "off the top" might be a good idea.
Thanks for sharing!

Hi Kamal. What more can I say? This is a wonderful image and I love the placement of the figure in the frame and the contrasting colors of her dress against the blue sky. The moon above is an added bonus. The fact that you have taken this image from a point of view below the dancer really adds to the effectiveness of the image. Thanks so much for sharing another unique cultural event! Ingrid Posted: 11/20/2023 12:55:24
