Pavan Kaul's Images: AMBROSIA
Fishing in Troubled Waters
Posted by Pavan Kaul (Mumbai, India) on 12 April 2009 in Landscape & Rural and Portfolio.
“The fishermen know that the sea is dangerous and the storm terrible, but they have never found these dangers sufficient reason for remaining ashore"
-Vincent Van Gogh
A film maker from India who has keenly nurtured his passion for photography since adolescence.
'AMBROSIA' is what I have named this photoblog, since 'creative expression' is the nectar that nourishes the soul of all creative artists. One can spend a lifetime taking pictures which may eventually add up to just a few hours, but come to think of it, that may just be the sum total of ones life. A camera as a companion is an absolute must..be it movie, or still."

Ajay from Pune, India
I love the colour tone and the concept. The sea looks so angry and the fisherman, with his arms opened, is all set to embrace those dangers and terrible storms.

Ooooo! I like the steel gray waves - ominous yet inviting. The palm in the foreground is an excellent addition for framing the scene as well.
