Very well done, I just wish I was able to see it bigger. You loose a lot of detail with a small pic.

definitely unique… very different from cliche shots of kathakali…usually prominence is given to colors associated with this it..here you have highlighted the essence ‘the mudras’
May 20, 2009 at 9:06 pm
You have a very good eye for light. Keep up the good work.

Amazing photo…I love the warm color, the soft glow of light, and the unique opportunity to capture something for the “point” theme! Stunning…
