About the Image(s)
This guy swam laps - then got out of the water and perched himself on a lounge chair in the sun - eyes closed - Gyan Mudra pose designed to enhance concentration/mental clarity. He remained motionless for approx 10 minutes - I couldn't resist capturing the scene.

The pose makes for an interesting story, Steven. I'm thinking maybe black and white would bring out more of the mood you're trying to convey. Or, if you were closer and with a conventional camera, you could have blurred the background just a bit; I think that is what is distracting me a little. Posted: 04/06/2025 23:33:50
I agree with you. I tried to highlight the subject with light - but I agree there are still too many distracting elements. Thank you. Posted: 04/08/2025 08:22:07
Hi Steven,
This image presents the balance between the strength and the calmness. The tanned man with a tatoo on his arm next to the swimming pool, and he is practicing Gyan Mudra meditation with his thumb and index finger together and seems to turn his focus inward, tells the story well.
I do not have any suggestion for improvement. Posted: 04/09/2025 16:14:38

Steven, I do love all the angles in the photo. Maybe not the windows in the background, but I love where you situated yourself to take the photo. Posted: 04/12/2025 01:25:43
Steven, looks like the feeling of warmth from the sun is calming to this man. Your shot from the side is a good choice. Posted: 04/13/2025 21:02:40
