Hi Animesh,
I like both shots that you have of this celebration, they are nice documentaries, I love those hats that the women are wearing and the mountains in the distance add to the setting. Our people in South Africa also make a similar beer from fermented corn called mague.
Regards
Wanda

Absolutely wonderful, Animesh, once again. WHat a series - the culmination at least of your trials with the D300 - clearly you have mastered that beast - t is now what was your F3 before...
From foreground the background the quality and content are exquisite, like the very best of Nat geo.
Fav.

Hi Anamesh!
A great shot of this celebration.
You found a great POV and I like a lot the depth of this image with these mountains and clouds in the far distance.

Hello Animesh. Your realistic photo reminds me of the beautiful Peru. The scene photographed like it very much. The use of the wide angle works perfectly here. But the most important are the colorfully dressed people. Excellent. Regards, Wolfgang.

There is such a beautiful, illustrative, painterly quality to this image - the red hat in the foreground makes it even more so - the type of compositional element a painter might more often include whilst a photographer might not. the mid and background details to the right are extraordinary and the three central characters excite my interest - they live so fully in their actions, their clothes and surroundings. Excellent!
