Mood-o-chrome

I often realize that I've kept aside several photographs which are actually good but I don't think they are. Anyways, my favorite pass-time, browsing my photo collection sometimes gives me new ideas. Today. I caught up with some photographs of my nephew Saptashwa Basu. An adorable devil he is.

The Don

The Romantic

The Poet

The Celebrity

The Mystique

The Divine

AND AT LAST

The Stripper

Pan-Stallion

This is an amazing thing that I've been doing photography for around 7 years and this is the first time that I've done Panning. For those who have no idea about what Panning means in still photography - It is a shot taken by moving the camera at slow shutter speed with respect to a moving object. The background naturally gets shaken.

Although it is not a perfect shot considering composition and exposure but I'm loving it. Have to try some more.

Call 'em Colored

All of a sudden, after long time, I got some enthusiasm to publish my photographs again. This (not 'these') photograph was taken last December at Bhimtaal near Nainitaal.

The second photo is a desaturated version of the first one. A prank came to my mind. There used to be a lot of racist people in this world few decades ago who'd call others 'Black'. There number has decreased a lot over time but those who still exist, have devised a better name 'Colored'. In any case, Black or colored, a photograph needs at least one of them to be a photograph.

Now please tell me which one of these looks better. I need to learn a lot....
