oh, this is delightfully bold with this enormous amount of logs in the foreground.
Fantastic work you brought from India, Animesh.

"Bold", yes, as Isabel says, boldness that grows out of confidence and an intelligent and searching eye. Love the contrast between the black logs and the misty background. This is cleer stuff, Animesh. It inspires us and makes us think, yes, damnit, think...
Kindest,
Francis

Another.
Superbly composed shot Animesh. The alck logs the misty background the light on the water and then the silhouette of the frantic rower working hard against the tide. Must agree with Francis inspiring stuff.
Cheers
Peter

Fantastic. So bold and elegant. I love your Indian photos. It seems you were very inspired there.

this is very nice Animesh, very unusual composition and great timing - the pose of the man is great, very good image, nothing to nitpick
