Hello everyone, I am new here. In fact I am very new to photography.

Here are some of my pics from last weekend from a nearby temple I didnt have a reason to visit until I got my first camera(Canon 500D). I know they are not sharp or properly exposed or streight or the other gazzalian things pros can get them to be and there is some really bad photoshoping. In addition I am a software developer so on the further side of an Art scale. Be gentle.

Location: Dehradun, India

Lord Rama with Brother Laxman and Wife Sita

Lord Shiva depicted at his home in Himalayas

Lord Krishna and Radha

Scene from Mahabharath (Krishna and Arjun)

I want to post more pics but we got to keep the mods happy [rolleyes]

The hardest thing I have found, which I earlier thought was the easiest, is to find good subjects.
