The Hilly Road, a photo from Bagmati, Central

Photographer's Note

Hi

Around 82% of the land is occupied by hilly and mountain region in Nepal. The roads construct on those region is difficult due to the unsymmetric and uneven lands and rocks in the hilly area. Therefore, the roads are constructed on the edges of hills and alongside the hills. They are mostly a narrow road. They are dangerous but adventurous.

Thank you

Hello Ashish,

The impressive road arise in the vegetation and give an interesting balance to the composition. The car, well off-centred on the right, give rythm and too an interesting idea of the important scale of the place.
Have a nice week,
Roger

Terrific shot, dear Ashish. The inclusion of that little van is essential here. Great balance in composition and perfectly framed. Thumbs up from Antwerp.

Hello,

It is exactly what I kept in mind and the nepalese road I did not keep a good feeling ;-)
The shot is perfect to evidence the road on the border of the cliff and the tiny white bus is sharing the huge size of this landscape.

Hi Ashish, beautiful composition, the forest is divided into two distinct parts from the street, seem almost two separate pictures, the framing is perfect and the minibus give the right moving to the image, excellent natural colors and sharpness, have a nice day, Valter

Hi Ashish
Interesting POV from the other side of the valley, with favourable light which gave nice greens and vegetation texture. There are some impressive drops along some roads in Nepal!

Una riga tra un folto bosco ed una bella scarpata.
Una collina che sembra una montagna .
Una bella avventura transitarvi .

ciao Ashish,
molto particolare l'immagine con la linea della strada che visivamente sembra tagliare in due la foresta.
Buon controllo della luce con il perfetto inserimento dell'auto a vivacizzare la scena,
buona giornata

Hi Ashish
This is an excellent viewpoint & composition of a beautiful green landscape. A very creative image, fabulous early morning lights and shadows. Impressive compo and this works well as the bright road creates a good lead in line, and the vehicle is a vital focal point and perfectly placed in the composition. The colours, clarity and general contrast are excellent, Great effort, Congrats
Best regards

Hi Ashish,
to trouble falling asleep if you drive on these streets!
I like curves and lively streets just because they keep you awake.
Perfect and clear work, where the van gives the sense of scale.
Good evening
Mario

patdeph (35750) 2011-10-12 11:29

Hi Ashish. Such a road is already worth a photo. The road runs as a graphic line across the image. You saw this object and well realized. Top! Rgds, Wolfgang.

Nard (6972) 2011-10-13 7:39

Hi Ashish
Amazing picture, I like how the road and the car seem to float on the air and cut the picture in 2 green parts. Well done

Bernard

paololg (31448) 2011-10-13 15:14

Ciao dear Ashish,
congratulations for this photographic masterpiece, I especially appreciate the good quality and the way that you've composed this picture, with the road that divides pleasantly the wood. Very important is the presence of the car that gives life and movement to the scene. Excellent work!
Ciao, have a nice Friday!
Paolo

Namaskar Ashish

Wow this is a unique and very eye-catching shot. love the way the thin road runs through all that greenery and we have the car on the right to show us the scale and perspective of the place. it is literally dwarfed by that mountain. Such a beautiful management of light too. A wonderful, well-seen and well-realised photo. Congratulations.

Warmest regards
Lisa

macjake (98544) 2011-10-16 9:44

Hi Ashish
I can certainly see why so many people have enjoyed viewing this photo.
The way its displayed, as the road cuts the photo into 2 halfs is very unique, we don't get to see that very often.
very well shot and set up.
well done

Hi Ashish!

Your gallery is simply interesting as it showcases your own country Nepal which I've been thinking off to visit this past few years. I guess the plan is starting to build it up and thanks to you! Excellent POV! Love the greens and all those trees! The white serves as a nice division and the inclusion of the car is a great Idea! Very nice work! Well composed image!

Thanks for sharing
Best regards,
Matt

Looking forward to more photos of Nepal! Cheers!

Hello Ashish - I am amazed by this shot. So well seen and managed. The light across the trees is lovely but what strikes me most is the road. The way you have it dividing the frame is super. The small vehicle gives good scale and I'm not sure I would like to be a passenger! Kind regards Rosemary
