A bannister

Thank you. The piece of translucent glass separator and the glowing background light made a difference, I think.

Open-air night dining

By: mitresg

Thank you. It is scary, when I look at the noise on the white tables; no noise reduction could make a dent. May be shooting at ISO3200, this is something unavoidable and must be taken into account.

Temple in early morning

By: mitresg

Thank you. The top, small placard proclaims that the temple teaches the correct doctrine. They all do. The bottom placard, proclaims that it holds a Buddha relic. For me, I just tried to get sharpness and correct exposure.

An indoor children's playground

By: mitresg

Thank you. This cafe caters to parties; there are outdoor/indoor playgrounds. First thing that struck me was the high contrast between outdoor and indoor; second thing was the wooden horse staring at the same game I was staring at. I just wanted to get all that.

A back alley scene

Thank you. I was attracted by the van's metallic roof, and the lines. The 2 guys, I had to wait.

Cleaning the lily pond

By: mitresg

Thank you. Our Botanic Garden is a World Heritage Site. It is a pleasant, non-commercial place; there are no peddlers of souvenirs, no postcard shops.
But, it does require an army of workers (these are from India) to keep the Garden in pristine conditions.

ROVURIE

By: brianbryan

I'm invited to participate with 5 images at a kind of art game, or exhibition in Clermont Ferrand, France - called Cadavre Exquis; inspired by a similar event created in the twenties by Duhamel, Tanguy and Prevert as part of the surrealist movement. My 5 shots are partly inspired by the key phrase of the event; "Waiting for the night"
