~ Bajaj ~, a photo from Rajasthan, West

Photographer's Note

A typically Italian scene?

It was here in Jaipur with the old 1960s Bajaj or the Indian version of Vespa, parked comfortably within 'ancient' looking surroundings. This machine happens to be the coolest thing on wheels ever, the Vespa or "wasp" called like that because of the noise its engine makes. Little wonder that this model still exists on the busy road of Rajasthan today, testament to their build quality.

Salam Abmdsudi. The colour harmony is exceptional here augmented by the patina of wear and tear. Soft light, balanced composition and an intriguing subject matter. Regards. Klaudio.

Hello Abmdsudi,

Almost ten years old the Vespa of long time ago.
But the background is the same also old.
Sharpness and clarity are superb.
An excellent composition also pleasant presentation.
Very well done, TFS.

Have a nice weekend,
John

Bonjour Abmdsudi,

J'aime beaucoup cette composition. Tu as su saisir l'endroit avec un beau point de vue au niveau des motos. Ce sont les textures très usées qui font l'image.

Amicalement

Hello Abmdsudi,
A beautiful view from the streets of this town. The colours of the old doors and the Vespas match each other so well. The composition is excellent too, a wonderful modern still life.

Hi Abmdsudi
this is an easy WOW photo from me! I bet the owners and local people here have no idea just how photogenic these scenes are.

to us as photographers its like being in heaven :)
even the colours compliment each other. love the rustic nature of all the subjects, its just about as perfect of a scene as you would want to run into walking the streets of an Indian inner city. brilliant.
cheers
Craig

Hello Abmdsudi,
Great scene. The colors are lovely, but not overly bright. I like the grittiness of the old doors and wall. Something simple can have a strong visual impact if presented well, like it is in this photo. :-)

carlo62 (81265) 2017-05-27 15:52

Ciao Abmdsudi
credo che questo modello sia uguale a quello che ho io e che era di mio padre, del 1964.
Bel colpo d'occhio, il colore delle Vespe è uguali a quello delle porte.
Saluti
Carlo

good colour combinations here in this street still life.

ktanska (45048) 2017-05-28 9:08

Hi Abmdsudi,
Fascinating view of these two old Vespa copies. I like how colours match with background doors. And both scooters and doors have strong signs of age making them picturesque.

Best regards

Ciao Abmdsudi

A nice catch of the old 1960's workhorse motorbikes. I like the textures in the bg wall with its peeling paint and the superb sharpness and diffused light. Tfs!

mcmtanyel (69165) 2017-05-30 21:08

Hello Abmdsudi,
I love those old doors and matching Bajajs. Well framed photo is a gem.

Hello Abmdsudi,
A scene with an 'Italian touch' but yet very different from Italy, I think.
An attractive street 'still life' with wonderful weathered walls and doors and equally weathered vespas.
Their colour matches well the doors.
Best regards, Paul
