Night of Eid in Mumbai
OK, this is not a single picture. I was desperate to shoot something like this on that very night, the night of Eid-ul-fitr. (For the uninitiated, it is a very important Islamic festival that is marked by the sighting of the crescent moon with the star).
I got a couple of decent moonshots. I got the night landscapes of Mumbai but by the time I’d perfected my settings, the moon was gone. So I added two files using the most primitive of all tools, MS Paint. I have turned it into monochrome in Picasa just to hide the deficiencies.
It is beautiful. And what I like more is your honest commentary of how you achieved it. That’s what makes it perfect!
Thanks priya….
Now it got an untold beauty that speaks much! Great shots–of course superb composition 🙂
Thanks Firas!
