Hello vimalkv - where did everyone go? --- no cars - no tourists to use the boats and of course the lone fisherman on the last image..... looks very deserted but makes for great photograhy ... very nice my friend

I like these, they are simple and effective and I'm particularly drawn to the third picture with the light reflecting on the water and the road snaking through the image, nice job vim

Vimal, your shots are well composed, have good contrasts and symetry. All three shots have the "leading you in" aspect. I like them converted to b/w also. Thanks Duane

Nice lines and curves in all of these. My favorite is your third image. the silhouetted palm with the light on the water is excellent
