~~N O . P A I N . N O . G A I N~~, a photo from West Bengal, East

Photographer's Note

Hello Everybody,

Another one from my 2 mpx mobile cam..!!!

I am back again after almost one month in the eastern Himalayas..This time took out a big group of students from the Assam Valley School in Ballipara, Tezpur.

This shot is from the final day when we took a short cut Jungle route from Kaalapokhri(3090 Mts) to Rimbick(2286 Mts)..before actually startingt to go down onw has to climb up to a point called the beekay phatak which is a 2 kms kne grinding climb as you can see here..!!! Some of the girls really went beserk climbing up this one after 2 days of major trek..It was a wonderful journey with the school and very well disciplined kids who listened to my instructions with lots of interest and followed it in every step. This shot was taken almost from the top while the last ones were struggling to get up.

Hidden Perspective: looking closer into the shot, I found out something rather strange in the shot...on the right just above the girl in the back, coming out from the base of the rock, can u make out a teddy bear formation looking on to the route..?????? I can see it clearly.....CAN YOU..????????????????

Enjoy...!!!!!

HI!

Superb composition and idea! One of the best mist photographs i have ever seen.. Very nicely framed! You have really reflected that tiring journey you talk about in your photograph!! Great work!
Yes , i do see the formation! Was it really there or you saw it on the photograph?? I dont think its kinda teddy bear. It looks like a wolf to me.. May be some funny ghosts up their trying to play a prank !!

Thanks for sharing,
Sayan

Hi Indranil

Very good composition and yes i can see the bear clearly. Your photo always has a unique color and composition and this too is very unique in its own way. Very natural shot , love the exhausted look and body language of those trekker. The fog rally came out nice. It seems that Samsung SGH E 740 camera phone has a very good focal length.

Regards,

Lopshang.

Hey!
Well this is certainly the best photo ive ever seen from a mobile cam. The tones and textures in the mist are so varied and clear. The expressions on the faces of these girls certainly reinforce the difficulty of the climb!
Well done,
namaste,
Dave

Hi Indranil
A teddy bear ghost hidden in the fog, threathening exhausted kids... dead trees.... may be not the most efficient invitation to join you for a trek in this himalayan range ...
Congratulations for this unusual and well composed picture !

Hello Indro
Very good mood here, shows the activity of trekking very well. The fog is a big plus for this shot as it creates a mystery and yes I can see the teddy in the BG as well. Like the ghostly silhouette of the tree on the left.
Best Regards
Angshu
