In the morning sun, a photo from Uttarakhand, North

Photographer's Note

Sitting in the doorway of a four foot high mandir, this pujari (temple priest) was enjoying the glowing Himalayan sunshine that morning. The shadows cast from the network of temples provided just the dark background needed for such a contrast. He was casually looking around, so it was difficult to get a picture of him looking in this direction. As a rule, I never interfere with subjects, so I had to wait for the right moment.

A bit of postprocessing in LR and PS.

What a wonderful mood you have here with the light and the shadows and with this young man's look. Well done!

Very Good usage of light Biswaroop. There is a huge question mark on the young boy's face. I sadly wonder if he is voluntaring to a spiritual career or is he being forced to you.
Good luck,
Satyakki
