Sunset | In it
PREVIOUS | CURRENT | NEXTWow. That was probably the best holiday I've ever had, and it was only two days (I was only shooting one day so the text in the picture is right). I went to a place called Uttan, it's around 3 hours outside Mumbai. We lived at U Tan Resort.
Let me share a little of it. In the photo, it's me, all alone, on top of a hill, with my camera. Before sunset I was sitting up there all alone with a laptop and wireless internet. Most of the time I was listening to an audiobook, The God Delusion by Richard Dawkins, which really gets one into such an amazing state of mind when listening to it in a place like this.
What I just said was nothing. The hell of an experience I'm referring to is the 4 hours of walking through villages. The things you see, the people you meet, and the photos you shoot, its just an indescribable experience. And you're going to see a new style of photography from me in the coming weeks along with my usual street style. I got some seriously mind blowing shots there. Might I mention the R1 was a privilege to shoot with, it really performed extremely well.
You can probably make out from the photo, amazing.

Very very nice shot...great colours...i have seen a similar one though, haven't I?
Fantastic angle, and great story. I can't wait to see more. My brother has an R1, he loves it as well.
Sounds like a wonderful time indeed. This is a really interesting shot and it matches well with your text. Nicely done.
gglad u had such a great day, those types of days come like once a year max...sorry to put a dampener on ur mood but shot doesnt work for me bcause of the dodging...
Glad you enjoyed the outing, now show us some photos :)
Great shot Azhar. What an awesome experience that must have been. I look forward to seeing the photos from that days visit. Congrats on the PR 6 too! It's well deserved. :)
Azhar,
That's one of the more unique angles I've ever seen in a sunset landscape/self-portrait. Very nice experimentation and implementation.
Waiting for the next post !Hurry up !
