stark and telling image( i missed visiting this location during the meet :( )

when i see this reminds me of the words " there is nothing right on the right and there is nothing left on the left " :)

Art is about what is inside rather than what is outside

Very well said, Ashok. Also, the portrayal of the place from the beautiful serene calm scene to this stark opposite gives errie feeling suddenly.
Very well photographed and conversion in BnW looks good too.

An apt title Ashok. The place exactly looked like one, of mother nature. I tried making a couple of images with similar theme, but did not come out as expected.. Well thought and made.

This is a wonderful piece of work, Ashok! An apt title to go with the image. I missed visiting this place.

The whole thought or concept of "development" hurts when you see it from Nature's perspective. I would treat this as a good symbolic representation of whats going on there. The title says it all.

The long drawn curves on the bank does strum a tune of melancholy in my mind. TFS

Ashok, you nailed with that very wide perspective. Stumps all over the terrain give that grim feel of a graveyard! TFS.

Thanks Prashant, Shiva, Hrishikesh & Ramesh. spent lot of time yet the gory of destruction of nature makes you feel very very sad so felt to picturise it with sad note of the stark title. The curve positioned to uncertainty to depict hopelessness

A very tearful bank......! The title adds and completes the image......! Clouds above are like fumes resulting in ashes of Green and juicy earth......! Regards...

For me this monochrome works better than the color version.. a hard hitting story telling image.. loved it..
