One more of my shots from my time in Belgium (2003-2004). Scanned image actually, so the image quality is not that good.

Keukenhof Reds
Its an scanned image, and therefore not so sharp anymore. But, I love the complete/total red color that oozes out of the flower petals.
Some might say that the red channel is overblown, but I beg to differ.

Saxophone player
Since it was a shot from a normal Minolta SLR, the digital version is a scanned copy given to my by the photo developing shop. I found it very interesting to see what digital alterations have done to the original scanned image. Specially the color balance, saturations.. And some cropping too...
Remarks pls...

A content Musician
I find the contentment in the instrument player phenomenal. A review request I posted on Photo.net, people suggested that an angled view would have been better. Though I respect the views, since it was an spontaneous shot, I did not really got a chance to shoot another one.

Red hot tulip...
I am not convinced about the level of redness this particular flower should have, but I still like the shot somewhere.
To me, it feels like the flower is of color fire-red... comments ?

A gentleman (Matt Simpson) suggested on dpreview that I could have processed the image as posted here, with which I absolutely agree. Reduced noise and cropping have brought the image in much more prominence.
Light rays from behind the clouds...
Found this in my old image collection (which I am reviewing these days). Immediately liked it and thought of sharing... I have to admit, its not the cleanest images, a situation shared by many of my old Minolta photographs.
Walking Trail...
Is it only me, or someone else also sees a column of light descending from skies into the far away end-point of the walking trail. Doesnt it look like the people are walking into oblivion...

Anybody care to comment...
Post Processing of "By the side of Zurich lake"
Tried some of my first learnings on post processing on this photo.
Care to comment...
the original is here...
Taken sometime in 2005 Dec, using my old Minolta Analog SLR (that should explain the grainy image quality). :(
However, I like the look of the photograph as it is, gives me a vintage painting like feeling.

Forest of Tulips...
This one give me a feel that I m standing in front of a huge wall of Tulips. Though George said its not as sharp as he would want it to be, but then he always says that for all my photographs...
Sometime I wonder if he's actually telling the truth... !!!

Children Park
One of my all time favourites. I like this one for the feeling that it gives away. whether its a painting or a photograph ?
And also, all the snow has given the whole scenery a sad kind of feeling. That adds to the effect.
Isnt that striking ?
I find this one very interesting.
Primarily for the background that almost completely dark. And therefor the flower kind of stands out. The colors have come out pretty nice as well.
