Thanks for your comment! Though I do like McCurry's shots, I also feel his colours are somewhat oversaturated. If you haven't, do check out Raghu Rai and Raghubir Singh's India photographs - they are much more true to the indigenous. I myself am trying to head away from high saturation too - something I did also unfortunately end up doing for a while.

It took 6 months to transfer the wealth from sri krishna devaraya kingdom to Britain [ not mentioning Kohinoor].The wealth over all the world now is no doubt is vomited by India. Yes,i agree now it is poor but no lack of cheer and celebrations

A vivid capture! The focus on the moving bike in the foreground pulls the composition together.
