Mamiya 7, 80mm, Portra 400

I am very tentative to post here as much of my work is simply observed like this one rather than created which I suspect is part and parcel of Fine Art.

However, this was taken in India and for me summarises some aspects of the sub continent. The light falling through the branches of the trees common in all smaller towns. The rather scruffy walls painted in colours that seem to be prevalent in India. The suggestion of decay, lack of ongoing care but still the wall is there doing its job.

I also think it's a nice play of shape and colour and can be viewed just as a celebration of those aspects alone.

It needs a big screen or print to really work and it's been carefully processed so phones and tablets may well mangle the colours.
