I am unable to provide any magic touch pramod, just PP... Magic is what is created by the experts we have here!

I don't have a calibrated monitor, so I don't spend too much time on color correction, it will never be right anyway. I try to get most of it right before the click. I don't have much patience for PP, I rarely spend more than 5 minutes in Photoshop for any image.

@Shamik :
Thank You!
Great shots there!
PP is only an icing on the cake, the real deal is the cake itself!
Just an advice, retain the whole face in the first picture, IMO the crop looks out of place.

Sunset, as per a common friend of mine and clevermax this is probably the most clicked item.(Clever i am talking of our andra enfield guy).

It was a field, and the setting was like that. Thanks for the appreciation. The boat looks good.

kaushik_s · 26th February 2010, 23:35

Hey guys, lovely shots there. I'm posting after a long time, hope you guys like it.
Shot at my natives (Assam), was going from my place to one of my relative's place. Actually on the previous day on the same route I felt that I might get a shot if I reach this place during sunset. So next day I was lucky to be there on time.

@kaushik_s; Beautiful sunset shot. One of the best that I have seen so far. Would have been even more astonishing if there were no other trees on the left (only a single tree)

@Torqueguru; Good stuff, as expected.

@shamik.bose; Great start Shamik.

@rjstyles69; Nice shot. Love the boat the foreground!

preetam_KORG · 27th February 2010, 00:11

@rjstyles :
Great shot there!
Love the vibrance of colours!
The sharpness of the image also needs to be complimented.
Overall, a perfect picture postcard!
+1

kaushik_s · 27th February 2010, 01:43

@TSEA, thanks a lot for liking the shot. Yeah, a single tree would've been even better. I tried to move as much possible but was hindered by a nullah and couldn't move closer or towards left.
