Ladaki marriage party, a photo from Jammu and Kashmir, North

Photographer's Note

Sitting at the bottom from the left are the groom and bride, and the mother of the bride, surrounding with the family in holiday cloth
The turquoise stones on women’s heads are the family fortune.

nice picture... but i feel the contrasts are a bit too high.. the colors don't seem all that right.. for instance, the prayer flag blue is not a turqoisish blue like in the picture, but a royal blue... and, p.s. i think the stones on the brides head are turqois'es n not emeralds. i just got back from leh and was wishing to chance upon a marriage- :( but no such luck.
overall, the picture has come across well.

yep i like the composition and the subject but the colours and contrasts are a bit overdone
