This image has great impact. The lighting, dof, choice of monochrome, and low perspective all work in harmony to make this an effective composition. Well done, my compliments.

Beautiful line-up of men displaying their spiritual ritual, in your perfectly composed and nicely captured B & W image. Markjay

Beautiful shot of the ceremony! I love the lighting, your choice to do black/white, and their reverent expressions.

Vikas, I like the lighting and strong contrast here...dramatic and emotive in B&W. Well composed too... I can appreciate the line-up of men performing the sacred light ceremony. I think this shot really captures some of the special mood of India's most ancient and sacred city. Well seen & taken. Was this performed along the Ganges River? MFC
