Wanted to capture this small lord Ganesh getting washed away by waves during immersion ceremony at Marina but fortunately or unfortunately insertion of camera into the frame changed the autofocus giving the shot different dimensions

Sitting amidst a debris of other idols, this beautiful Ganesh idol managed to reach the shore after it was immersed in water during Visarjan.
The queen's necklace formed a perfect background for this frame.

After a week of grand worship & celebrations, a headless idol of lord Ganesh lies totally neglected in a puddle of dirty rain water! Goes on to show how we operate in this society.

I had rented Canon 10-22 for my upcoming Pondicherry tour and my intension was to use it as much as possible. Luckily I was able to do so; and from the day I rented it; till the end of Pondicherry tour; all the pics are taken with Canon 10-22 only.
I was roaming around Pottery Town to capture pre Ganesh Puja fiesta; when I noticed this guy inside a big tent repairing and painting Ganesh Idols. The moment I saw him I realized I’m in for a photographic treat!!! I sat close to him; placed my camera on ground and started shooting him working. This guy was really really friendly and did not have any complain about me spending more than a hour at his place.
I’ve uploaded both color and BW version of this. Please let me know your thoughts on this.

Kumortuli (also spelt Kumartuli) is a traditionally potters’ quarter in northern Kolkata West Bengal. By virtue of their artistic productions these potters have moved from obscurity to prominence.
Emerging virtually as an independent international brand of Durga-image makers, Kumartuli continues to remain an exclusive exporter of the idols of the goddess to NRIs settled in different nooks and corners of the globe during the Durga Puja held annually. The potter's town popularized the puja of Durga in clay images some four centuries ago.
The Asiatic Society of Calcutta estimates that the first formal "puja" of Durga was held around 1606 A.D. at the present Baghbazar area in Kolkata by a zamindar Pran Krishna Halder. Four years later, the Kumartuli's "Kumars" started making the idols of "Maa" (mother goddess) Durga in clay for the neo-rich feudal lord Laxmikanta Roy Mazumder, who is the first patron of Kolkata's potter's town and initiator of the "puja" of Durga in clay idols.
This shot is taken just the day before Ganesh Chaturthi; at pottery town. Puja shopping was at full swing with people buying Ganesh and Gauri idols of all size and shapes!!! I figured the very previous day will be the busiest and colorful day here in Pottery Town and I was right.
This frame is of one of many shops selling small idols with interested buyers all around it.
The soothing part is this was the day for Eid celebration. I had shot Eid at morning and then I ended up shooting these frames at evening; a perfect example of cultural diversity. Rather during this time 3 days in a row we had 3 different festivals for 3 religions: Christianity, Islam, and Hinduism.
I have posted both color and black and white version of this. Let me know which version you like better.
