two and a half, and a LOLLY POP, a photo from Sikkim, Northeast

Photographer's Note

Got them in the capital of Sikkim,
Gangtok (a beautiful hill station
of north east India). The two
elder ladies were coming with a
little boy (probably their grandson), who was busy with his
lolly pop. Liked the frame with
the busiest child with two grandmas
, as if nothing is more
important against the lolly pop
candy. Hope you will enjoy it.

I like this one in b&w with the 3 persons in the FG, each of them with a different attitude and life which goes on in the BG
well done

Hello Subhendu,
A very appealing portrait of these two elderly ladies and the little boy intent on his lollipop. It is well framed and the the black and white conversion is very successful with a good range of tones and excellent sharpness.

नमस्ते Subhendu,
Very nice photo, the friendly locals are expertly captured with a good atmosphere. Their looks and clothes make me feel an affinity, are very similar to the Japanese.
i like also the warm black tone very much.
Best wishes, Hisashi

ciao Subhendu,
mi piace molto l'inquadratura dove le due donne in primo piani incorniciano la scena di vita che si svolge alle loro spalle.
La scelta del B&W fa risaltare la definizione molto bene,
buona giornata

dear subhendu
u hv posted many beautiful photos in the past and i hv seen quite some of them but for some reason i fell in love with one the moment i saw it.
this one is an absolute stunner !
the light, the construction, the mood, the hidden melancholy, the simplicity .... i just loved it.

Hello Subhendu,

As a B&W photos lover, I really like the black and white tones of this shot. I believe that sometimes colors distract the mind from the main message of a photo. Well done!
