Paused moments

Photo essay

There are millions of moments of beauty which we ignore and pass by in our daily busy life: A perching house finch here, worrying eyes of a cat there, an old forgotten lamp, a cozy corner with "Arj" foldable chairs for sitting and sipping a cup of tea, green life protruding from a frozen pond, splendor of the wind in grass, colorful decay of fallen leaves on a pond, a rusty fountain, and on and on… Though I have paused some of these moments with my lens, but I have also paused when passing by these small beauties to remind myself how relaxing they are! I am sharing them with you hoping that we shall appreciate the ignored simple beauties of daily life. I hope you and the readers enjoy them.

I have enjoyed your presentations, fittingly titled “Paused moments.” Is it not a wonder that simplicity can reveal so much about the complex? I suppose it is all about the way of seeing.

moments paused beautifully

11, 22, 24 and 31 are my favorites among many more. I actually like the lighting; it helps subjects stand out more dramatically. Hope to see more of your work here.

Need to work on lighting!

by My Two Cents (not verified) on

You have the interest and the eyes for being a good photographer. However, you need to work on your mastery of light.

Your photos are dark and come across as underexposed. Just like millions of snap-shots taken everyday by ordinary people.

A few in photography should push you in the right direction and make your photos jump out of the page.

Best Luck.
