Day 123 - Some HDR

The Barber Shop at the vegetable market in Colombo Sri Lanka

- The HDR treatment brings outthe depth of colours and intensitfies the contrast. I have also reveresed the photo for better composition. I like the Cartoon-like effect that this particular HDR treatment gives.

Day 118 - Autorickshaws - India and Sri Lanka

Well I am running a few days behind schedule so in an attempt to catch up I am looking through my photos from the last month and will upload a few. This seris is about the three wheeler taxis in India and Sri Lanka. Similar to the TukTuks in Thailand and Cambodia.
I found that the quality and cleanliness of the autowrickshaws was generally better in Sri Lanka than in India.

Sri Lanka Auto Rickshaw

After passing or being passed by probably hundereds of these Black and Yellow (Kali Pili) Autorickshaws in India I formed the opinion that sitting like this guy was the "standard" and that driving without shows was also the standard.

Roadside repairs to the left rear wheel.

Unusual yellow and brown coloured Autorickshaw in Hyderabad.

Waiting for a fare or perhaps a lunch break - This driver reads the newspaper under the shade of a large tree in New Delhi.

Day 118 - Fallen Soldiers

As part of my activity on the Realdotin web forum I agreed to take another photo of the Garbage bins this Wednesday - These looked like fallen soldiers.

The strong colours in this attract attention and lead the viewer'seye through the line of lids to the back of the picture where the full bin is visible.
