I like the human touch in this amazing picture of Namibian desert.
The colour of the woman's hair goes well with the lighter side of sand dunes.
Thanks.

Serenity and peace ooze out of this enchanting place in China, Chandhima.
Thanks for sharing this lovely image.

Technically faultless capture of this enchanting water fall.
Another beautiful image from the Highlands.

Nice ambience here. Your tree theme is not strong enough to distract me from the charm of the landscape. What a depth of view!

Thanks for your comment on my picture I posted here ages ago, David & Natasha.
I have had a quick look at your portfolio and was devastated by the appeal of your landscapes.
Will see some of them with greater concentration later.
This one is just beautiful.
Whatever heavy post-processing you have done on it goes well with me.

It is mood picture, David.
The silhouettes of couples against the darkening sunset suggest a moment of quiet reflection.
Your note gives a good idea about the place.
Thanks and regards.

Dear Subhash,
I visited Kumaon region in October 1983 with school boys and trekked to Pindari Glacier. However, we just travelled through it by bus and focused on the trek region only.
I used to have one colleague and friend at Mayo College Ajmer from Ranikhet area. He used to talk about his native place a lot and I realize now after looking at your picture that it is, indeed, a beautiful hill region. The terraced fields look like the ones we have in Himachal Pradesh.
The three zones in your landscape picture -- the foreground, the mid distance and the far end -- are well balanced. I love the colour tones and especially the signs of spring in those blooming trees in the foreground.
Regards,
Ram

Hello Subhash,
Thanks for leading me to this heart-touching episode from a brave man's life you have brought to light through this picture and the note with it.
Kumar has suffered all these years through an ironic quirk of destiny. Who could imagine a MIG flyer would be turned into a hapless ivalid after a ridiculous mishap on the ground?
My heart goes time and again to this brave-heart who has brought some meaning into his life through grit and determination.
May God keep on giving him strength to lead the rest of his life with a degree of success and satisfaction -- no matter how small.
Thanks again.
Ram

I like this image, Tin.
The boys and their rain protection gear are great to look at.
A fine glimpse into the ways of rural Bangla Desh people.

Hello Prof Biswas,
I happened to look at my Treklens postings after almost one year and found your critique on the sepia picture of my niece Tanupriya.
Sorry for making the return critique after such a long time.
This image of the sea and sky is very artistic. The sense of vastness of these two becomes palpable in relation with the tiny size of the shelters and the the people sitting under one of them.
I also retired as a teacher of English after finishing a five years' stint as Principal of an Indian School in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
Now I live in Delhi.
Best regards,
Ram Thakur
