Salam Farhat. The first thing i shall mention is the extra vivid frame. i think it competes with the subtle pastel colours of the image.The picture is beautiful enough without the yellow exclamation mark around it.But then it's all to do with personal taste. If I look past the frame, i feel at peace as i watch the sun set and the boat glide along the Hooghly River. Regards. Klaudio.

Dear Farhat,
I think no need for this yellow frame. Another point is that the thing in the foreground in very strange which needs to be cut. Overall the pic would have been a beautiful one if the foreground thing is removed. This is disturbing.

Bonjour Farhat,
J'aime beaucoup cette composition car elle raconte une histoire. La fin de la journée de travail et le retour à la maison pour une famille indienne. Le soleil qui se couche timidement donne une belle touche de couleur.
Amicalement

Hello Farhat,
A fine dusk picture, with a perferct fire-ball descending. River scenery under already darkening sky, shown well and scaled by the big float and boat on mid-straem. Fine shot.
Have a nice weekend,
Ike

Hi Farhat,
THe sun is. Beautiful here and combined with the little boat, it does evoke a great feeling of calm and peace, very nice shot. I'm afraid I agree with the other comments about the yellow frame, it does compete a little too much for attention with your picture itself. A very lovely shot though.
Cheers

Hello Farhat,
I have to agree with Klaudio and Joginder that the bright yellow frame was not such a good choice. It is rather disturbing. As for the photo itself I find it beautiful. It's a very well captured Indian evcning atmosphere which evokes a lot of memories. I imagine I can hear the noise of the Calcutta crows as they are gathering around the trees where they will spend the night. The blue and purple tones of the sky and the water are lovely. The boat is well placed, and although the buoy may not be so beautiful it fills the foreground very nicely.
Kind regards,
Gert

Hello Farhat,
the scene and the atmosphere you have captured are very lovely. I don't agree with the very bright colour of the frame though, I think that it undermines the deep scenery, the setting sun -that is much darker- and the quiet evening mood. You managed to capture very fine natural hues which have to struggle to make an impact. Your composition is wonderfully balanced. Congratulations and thank you!
All the best, have a great day,
Ourania

Hello Farhat,
The view of the river is beautiful with a great sunlight and lovely colours. Good inclusion of the lonely boat too, it all creates a very peaceful mood. I am not so sure about the yellow frame though, but the photo itself is excellent.

Hi Farhat,
You're fortunate to have this scene, especially if it's quite typical. A very calm and peaceful mood that is set by the moment captured. I can imagine sitting along the banks of the river and quietly enjoying the day turn to night. I really like how the sun is divided into two colors, and of course, the solitary boat making its last journey for the day is just the right touch to cap it off. Hope you've had a nice weekend. Take care.
Friendly wishes,
Jason

Hi Farhat,
The distance between the boat and the buildings is giving depth to the composition. You have captured well the action of the boat moving on the river. The sunset is trying to improve the colors of the sky. Have a nice day.

Hi Farhat
maybe not the best of lighting conditions, but then again it is sunset time so its quite limited.
what i love most is the vastness of the river and how small the people appear to be. really gives off a sense of feeling insignificant as humans :)
tranquil setting, picturesque views. nice shot
cheers

Hello Farhat,
Excellent sunset photo. I like the arrangement with the hanging sun over the town houses. I like how you have placed the boat in the frame.
Very well done.
Greetings,

p.s. Nepal trip was excellent except the end with bad weather. I'm sure I'll coming back soon.

Dear Ferhat
I love this composition because it tells a story. The end of the work day and return home to an Indian family. The sun timidly layer gives a nice touch of color.

Hello Farhat,
You have captured well the mood of the end of the day in a well balanced composition. The silhouettes of the three people tell a story and the faint orange color on the water is interesting.
Best regards

Hello Farhat.
A beautiful sunset with backlight buoy and canoe sailing, the shore in the background on a semi-backlight, with orange circle the sun, complete the beautiful spectacle.
A good management of both the brightness and sharpness.
Very well done. I like it.
Enjoy the weekend.
Best wishes to you.
