Luggage? - Vish Vishvanath




Early Morning on a Rajasthani train platform. This shot was taken from a slowly-moving train opposite. As we approached the station, I looked out the window, saw this scene (from the opposite angle) and sprinted to the door of the carriage. Enjoy this picture!

Congrats is right!

This one is my fav' of yours Vish. I think I sensed your award coming, that's why I requested the postcard! Darn! I hoped you signed it--I forgot to ask! (It will be more valuable that way later) ;-)

A Great Shot

Vish, Outstanding photography! Truly personifies the term "painting with light." And that's what photography is all about. Congratulations.

Great and grabbed?!

Lovely composition, great story and grabbed from a moving train! Exemplary shooting Vish and a deserved winner of Glen's choice.

Congratulations!

Your shot is more than adequate for winner, and you were more than lucky - you was prepared and fast! This counts, too...

Favoirite

Vish ... this is probably my favourite shot too of all the shots on the site. Apart from the composition, dof, texture, film choice what I particularly enjoy here is that this is a Low Key Documentary, in other words a straight shot. These shots comes seldom. Worst of all you can't prepare for most of them. They come by chance. Once again, congratulations. Glen you did the only right thing. Knut

A Blast From the Past

What an excellent image! Great vision and hustle to get in place and compose to capture this magical scene. Well done.
