Colour

I think that what India represented for me in photographic terms, was colour. The place was full of it and sometimes colour got the better of me. Perhaps there wasn't a picture to capture, perhaps there was.

I think the garments that many of the people were wearing often prompted me to trip the shutter. In both these images, I'm sure an integral part of the photograph is made up from the clothing. Texture and colour again. But as was discussed yesterday, a photograph can be read on many levels. It's not always just composition, or just colour or a 'moment in time' we're capturing. It's often a combination of these elements and perhaps more, perhaps things we can't define, which make us want to make pictures.
