Challenge: Scene It! (Basic Editing III)
Camera: Sony DSC-H1
Location: Chittagong, Bangladesh
Date: Aug 28, 2006
Aperture: 2.8
ISO: 64
Shutter: 3s
Galleries: Nature, Infrared
Date Uploaded: Aug 28, 2006

 So far I remember, the scene was just a little different. The horizon was more far and it obviously wasn\\\'t an infrared rendering in the film \\\' Padma nadir majhi\\\' [in english \\\'The Fishermen of padma river\\\'].

The movie was about the life of a fisherman who suffers in agony of poverty. When the river dries out[which basically occurs when INDIA reserves water for it\\\'s own] they face a different reality of life. Sometimes the life is just having plain white rice for weeks and sometimes starving for days. Thus the film potraits the different phases of life and the conroversial elements of life.

May be I\\\'m showing just a tiny bit of happiness when the fisherman has something to sell.

Beautiful image, one of the nicer ir images I have seen. Unfortunately, I am not familiar with the movie.

Well this is pretty impressive for basic ... The colors and composition are beautiful without compare. It looks like the camera is focused across the water which makes the foreground subject require a great deal of post processing - which seems to stick out here to me a bit too much.
 09/04/2006 06:06:20 PM
I am very sure this has gone through extensive post processing, but the outcome is simply outstanding, 9
 09/04/2006 06:04:54 PM
Awesome, looks surreal
 09/03/2006 11:28:16 PM
nice color. Editing a little loppy. Image looks low quality, maybe it's just me.
 09/03/2006 10:54:31 PM
the closest thing I could find was "Boatman of the River Padma", but that seemed to use natural lighting a la the 70s. In fact, I've never seen a movie that uses the Infrared filter...

This is a fantastic photo.

But... I can't tell what movie scene it is trying to reproduce!

Even with a search of IMDB and Google... nothing really comes up. :(

The most pleasant picture in the challenge, really good job
 09/02/2006 02:38:38 PM
8 :) how strange this effect is.
 09/02/2006 06:51:52 AM
like the blue in your pic!the clouds are mystical.....nice shot:)
 09/02/2006 01:47:27 AM
Interesting photo
 09/02/2006 12:32:31 AM
Simply lovely. I am not usually a fan of IR, but it is shots like this that make me want to learn more about it. I love the *color* tones in this and the composition is strong as well.
 09/01/2006 09:50:07 PM
LOVE the IR and the blues and the smooth water. As far as the movie goes -- never heard of it. I found "Boatman of the Padma River" on imdb.com, so I guess that's what you were going for.
 09/01/2006 03:56:04 PM
NICE!!! This has a paiterly feel - almost surreal - great shot!! 10
 08/31/2006 11:20:46 PM
Don't know the movie. Kind of lost with the image nice but seems over done.
 08/31/2006 10:06:27 PM
beautiful, i like the color composition a lot.
 08/31/2006 07:06:33 PM
Very cool! Love your shot!
 08/31/2006 04:47:44 PM
I couldn't find this movie, if you PM a link then I'll vote on it, I don't want to give a low score because of my lack of movie knowledge:)
 08/31/2006 01:54:56 PM
I dont know what Padma River is but the photo looks somewhat magical and weird. Is this all within the basic Editing guidelines? If so, then cool.
 08/31/2006 11:02:42 AM
beautiful shot!
 08/30/2006 10:04:26 PM
Nice picture, very interesting tone and imagery. I've never since this movie, but I like the photo. It seems a little grainy maybe?
 08/30/2006 07:11:22 PM
Lovely IR - never seen the movie but the effect is magical. Bumping to 8.
 08/30/2006 01:15:47 PM
you should keep the natural colors, would be more attractive...
 08/30/2006 12:33:33 PM
Lovely colours... is this an IR shot? lovely.. 10 for me..
 08/30/2006 12:33:21 PM
Nice infrared !!
 08/30/2006 10:43:55 AM
Not familiar with the movie but an interesting pic none the less.
 08/30/2006 08:57:48 AM
I can't put my finger on it but there is something with the water that doesn't look natural.
 08/30/2006 06:40:56 AM
the IR makes it really surreal which is perfect...great colour and composition
 08/30/2006 05:33:11 AM
Does the unreal quality of the photo reflect the film? It's a nice shot.
 08/30/2006 04:56:56 AM
