Loving Red, a photo from Andhra Pradesh, South

Photographer's Note

A break from the beach and the sea.

Spotted this kid climbing down the stairs and realised everything else was red. I do wish I had the better timing.

Do let me know what you think.

Magnificent uniform and bright red colour.
Very simple composition, but it works very good.
The addition of the kid climbing down the stairs adds for great size comparison and at the same time adds a little break to all the red background.
Thanks for sharing.

Amazing shot Lakshmi. Superb red, graphical shot with the human shot. I cannot think of a better timing that yours. Congratulations, Daniel

This is a very nice photo, very nice light and composition. I like the red suroundings, they really exentuate the boy.

Thank you for sharing.

I just can't help myself when it comes to the color red- I love it. The lighting coming down those steps is great- it pops the design right out. Yes, a little bit more timing on the boy would have been nice, but I know how that goes. Good work.

I like how the walls are in shadow, while the stairs are in light. It creates good contrast between the two, and makes for richly saturated red walls. I think your timing is great. You can tell these big stairs are a little hard for him to negotiate.

Better timing to not have the kid included in this photo? No way, it's awesome. The kid just adds to the great photo. Good Shot.

And the red gives the magic touch in this photo Lakshmi, great idea not to show but the wall and the boy, his face is also very interesting, you clicked at the right moment, when his face was full of personality. Thanks for share. Take care.

Hi Lakshmi,
congratulations! I like the picture a lot: framing, colour, movement of the kid, light...
Simple and effective shot.

Ciao Jeffao

Hi Lakshmi,
What a bright red ! I appreciate the 'graphic' effect of the composition, as well as the human touch brought by the little boy.

I thought only Bengal is being painted Red by the Communists, didn't know about Hyderabad! Jokes apart, an excellent composition. Like the lighting. The boy's hesitant step is reflected in his slightly fearful eyes.
Cheers

Hi Lakshmi

Nice graphic effect with the steps and bricks. I like the way the tshirt contrasts with the red fo the rest of the composition.

Thanks for sharing

Not easy, trying not to fall down with a slipping pant, while being distracted by something happening not far away that is impossible to ignore...
Funny and in the same time, so well framed and the red, so stricking !
Bravo,
Cath.

Great shot I love the vibrance of the red and in a way his horrified look, and maybe a little more levelbut still great shot!

Lakshmi,
A fantastic symmetry here with an interesting tryst with forms...
Absolutely mind blowing...
The mood is very emphatic here....
Cheers,
Prem.
