This is one of Antonio Correia's recent trio of images from India.
The other two were market scenes.
This one is unique in that the doorway is itself remarkarcable in design and interest and then we are introduced to a series of outdoor shrines. This scene look very imposing and religiously sacred.
Of course the sky could have been made perfect with wonderful clouds and we could have several humming birds visiting. Antonio didn't think of that!
In fact this has an errie feeling of emptiness and perhaps ghost of long time ago.
Would it have been better with a wonderful sky. I ask you to think about that. I'd love to also see this in B&W since I wouldn't be suprised if it was even more powerful and that B&W matured it by shedding the glamour of color.
Of course, I don't know what was on Antonio's mind apart from recorded his visit. Still, this image is here, and makes mec think of the past and a lot of ceremony and offerings.
