as I was passing thru', a photo from Rajasthan, West

Photographer's Note

I came across this while wandering among the alleyways in Holy town of Pushkar -an important Hindu pilgrimage site with a maze of temples where one would never be far from the sound of worship.

.. even this fella seemed to realise the site's religious significance!

Greeting.
An interesting scene on the street, well shown with beautiful colors, contrast and captured moment.
The cow walks freely through the city.
I wish you all the best.
Paja.

Hello Abmd Sudi,

We get a wonderful view with cow walk along the street.
Pleasant with the sign 'spiritual walk' to see.
An excellent daily life view.
Very well done, TFS.

Best regards,
John.

Hello Abmdsudi,

I have looked at this photo with great pleasure; it has all the characteristics of an oil painting.
I just love how the light is streaming across the wall and highlighting the cow.
The whole scene has such a lovely flow and sense of depth.

The sign on the wall adds a little sense of humour!

Thank you for sharing this,
Bev :-)

Hello Abmdsudi,
A great picture both for its esthetical aspect (i love the tonalities) and for its funny one .
Congratulations.

Hi Abmdsudi,
Texture of that pale blue wall looks great and direction of light is optimal. I really like those diagonal shadows. And the cow following spiritual walk adds an aspect of humor.

Bonjour, cher Abmdsudi,
Vous avez un talent fou pour prendre des photographies et les transformer en peintures !
Ici, l'aspect général possède un moment fort.
Superbe !

Hello a.

I have similar pictures of cows going somewhere in the streets of India. Charming composition from Pushkar.

best regards Malgo

Hello Abmdsudi, the time and the place were perfect for you, as the cow just happened to walk past the sign.
Being white the cow stands out against the darker tones of the background. The light and shade create a lovely effect.
A quick response that gave you an excellent picture.
Kind regards, Jean.

Hello Abmdsudi,
A bit of good luck, and wonderful photographic skills combined to create this great shot. This is a perfect scene from India. I think the cow knows his significance. Maybe he is even the spiritual leader of the other cows in the area! This is an amusing and lovely photo. :-)

Hi

Good eye to detect the potentiality of the advert and the passing cow, that's the gem of street photography we have to discover and react promptly in front of a timed scene.
So good!
