Monsoon Light

I love the rains. Always have. And one of the things that i enjoy the most about the monsoons is the kind of light that filters over Mumbai. This is stuff that i have shot over the last few weeks – experimenting with aperature control and shutter speed Mumbai Andheri East When sun light filters through the clouds, even Andheri (East) looks enchanting :) And this is over Bandra Flyover. conventional wisdom tells you not to click the sun – but …. Good Morning

    Amazing pics!!! Andheri East does not look at all like the ‘andher nagari’ it so often seems to be…it does not even look part of Mumbai… :)

    thanks lovemarks. Andheri can be quite bleak. But, somehow on days like this it seems to glow :)

    You’ve got a great eye. Can’t believe you’re “experimenting”. Phenomenal. I believe that it is so much harder to take a good color photo than a black and white one. Your shots are very impressive….what gear are you using?

    Lovely. Photographing the sun produces some really ethereal shots. :)

    I try too… but hardly succeed.
