Rain by Asha Karami

Rain



I want to tell a little more about this photo:

It is made with an anloque F80 camera and a tamron 18-200 3.5-6.3, so i was no so well equiped. The film i used was a black and white iso 400.
I had no chance to see my picture and adjust anything. I have scanned the black and white negative to what you see here. It made 2 shots, and it was this one shot that fortunately was exactly the composition, mood and atmosphere of that day.

It is made in the monsoom season, in North-India. It was de birthday of the Dalai Lama so as this was his refuge place it was a busy day. When it started to pur however everyone went inside and i found shelter here and was looking at the people walking, and mostly running by to get away from the rain.

Old tibetian refugee walking in the rain... So calm and peaceful.

Asha Karami, 12.06.2006 at 20:08h

Thank you all!!
Micky, you seem to know all about the heavy rain in Asia ;)
yet with the heay rain the woman seems proceding her way in a calm and slow matter...

6-9-6 - Travel Blog, 12.06.2006 at 21:34h

hi Asha,
I don't know too much about heavy Asian rain because I try to leave those places in time ;o))

you're right - I think it's the old lady's attitude which emitted that "calm and peaceful athmosphere" to me.

This athmosphere is well supported by the nicely balanced composition and the diagonal from the lower left to the upper right (man - lady - porch of shop)


really like the image a lot :)
regards..................................... micky .


Wiebke Q-F, 13.06.2006 at 19:03h

I think you took the pic in Mcleod Ganj, right? Usually at monsoon the water runs down the road, water high until your ankle :-))
A very typical monsoon pic. A well done composition.

Asha Karami, 14.06.2006 at 16:06h

Yes indeed wiebke ;) very good of you.
Thanks for your comment... :)

a very good and well composed monsoon scene taken on the road leading downhill from central Mc Leod Ganj, near the residence of the dalai lama.

I like the "roughness" of the photo given the subject and the fact it is BW You certainly have captured the central figure and the mood of the occassion well in relation to the background that contributes well.

It is a wonderful photo and probably so good because of your equipment and the rain - and of course monochrome.
