There are many disadvantages of shooting on the move - time to focus is almost nonexistent, composition is compromised, etc, etc. So when I was visiting Bangladesh two years ago, my gameplan was to shoot as much as I could and later on sort out those that would be nice enough to share. This was so-so in color, but on sepia, it looked decent and gives a sense of otherworldly era. What say you?

i agree, the sepia effect gave it an old school feel. as if you stepped back in time :)
ReplyDeletegreat.. everything are works very well, the sepia tone, the setting, the people, well tied together as an art.. gives the feeling of "as it is" with the compliments of the tone... well done
ReplyDeletei actually like the sepia tone on this one. i, too, just shoot at anything then sort photos when i get the chance.
ReplyDeleteSome pictures lend themselves to color and others to sepia. I believe in taking a lot of pictures when the opportunity allows and go thru them later. Great picture.
ReplyDeleteI love it. It looks like an "instant classic" :) I thought it was an old photo.
ReplyDeleteYes, this works nicely. Color photography is just that - colors, but not shapes or shadows, or at least it's more difficult. Sometimes it's best to remove the color and see what's left.
ReplyDeleteLovely work.
Photo cache, an incredible shot! :)
ReplyDeleteIt works very well in sepia.
ReplyDeleteYes I think the sepia tone does give it a more "old photograph" feel to it. Thanks for sharing:)
ReplyDeleteWonderful shot and I just love the sepia tones here.
ReplyDeleteI feel here the blur helps give an action to your photo! It gives me a sense of motion in a way that the two people you captured were moving! Sepia tone really gives it a vintage look! Super!!

ReplyDeleteeverything are works very well, the sepia tone, the setting, the people, well tied together as an art.
