GOING TO THE TEMPLE, a photo from Bali, Nusa Tenggara

Photographer's Note

This photo were taken at Pura Samuan Tiga temple at Bedulu village. These women were walking in a long queue with the offering on their head. They are all heading to the temple to pray.

I took th photo in low angle in order to catch the cloud and those trees at the background.

Cheers,
Yoga

Hello Yoga,
I like the pov and composition. The trees and the sky are also interesting. I would like to see the colour version of this shot too.

Hello Yoga.

lovely photo this one! I love how the low POV and the wide lenses allowed you to have such an interesting angle on this celebration.

These photos are usually known for their strong colors but this convertion to a contrasted B&W fits well and gives it a more dramatic atmosphere.

Cheers.
Paulo

Hi Yoga
Interesting approach to use black and white, but it works really fine here. Love your POV, it gives the picture some impact.

Hi Yoga. i do like your work since you push the boundaries, you experiment, you do not stifle your imagination.Excellent sense of movement and importance of the occasion accentuated by a low POV. I do like the overall effect. Keep up the good work. Regards. Klaudio.
