I was sure I can never have the time to do deliberate photographic studies, let alone - on a predefined subject and with a deadline. November sunshine proved me wrong: I had 5 minutes, the subject was 'shadows' and I saw them, in my own sitting room and garden. Next day I even found time to crop and clean them a bit, and here they are - for your critique :)

Sepetang Di Kuala Besut. (an evening in Kuala Besut)
Me and the kids always visit this particular Part of Kuala Besut. We normally stay till the dark shadows of the night claimed the shore and stole the evening light. Than we will have our dinner at the seafood restaurant located right infront of the blue sea...watching the weaves and few anglers along the beach. Sadly, after a few visits to the Restaurant, i have to Say NO...the foods were lousy! so lousy and with the big price tag too. ;(
This picture was shot at the resting "Wakaf" (small wooden shade) along the beach.
The sun is shining and shadows of bare trees create abstract art on the snow that has been blown here by the recent storm.

The shadows were long when I caught this city scene of people walking in the Piazza Del Duomo" during my recent visit to Florence, Italy. We climbed to the top of the Duomo - yes, it was a very long, steep climb - but worth the view!
Kumortuli images are generally ordered well in advance and there a few for off-the-shelf sale. Nowadays, Kumortuli’s clientele has extended to America, Europe and Africa, among the Indian communities living there. In 1989, Durga images made out of shola pith by Amarnath Ghosh were flown to Sweden, Australia, Malaysia and Nigeria. The images weighed only three kilograms each and were ideally suited for air travel.In modern times, Statues and replicas made out of Fiberglass are also being produced and exported to various parts of the country and the world.[12]
In 2006, Kumortuli supplied 12,300 clay deities of goddess Durga. This potter's town supplies images to about 90 countries worldwide with new nations joining the list every year. Many East European countries, where religious ceremonies were previously banned, have started buying images from Kumortuli. A spokesman of Kumartuli Shilpi Sangha (KSS), an association of the craftsmen, said the NRIs of countries like Hungary, Bulgaria, Russia, Austria and Poland, come to Kumortuli to buy images. U.S. based NRIs, including the Bengali Association of Southern California, Bengali Association of Greater Chicago, Dakshini, Sanskriti, Garden State Puja Committee of New Jersey, East Coast Durga Puja Committee of New York, North America Sarbojanin Kalipuja Association of Connecticut[13] come to Kumartuli to select deities to ship to their cities. Additionally, hundreds of agents in Kolkata service NRIs seeking idols from Kumortuli.[14]
In Kolkata, the icon-artisans mostly dwell in poor living conditions. The more popular among them are Mohan Banshi Rudra Pal and his sons Sanatan Rudra Pal and Pradip Rudra Pal, Rakhal Pal, Ganesh Pal, Aloke Sen, Kartik Pal, Kena Pal, who are still reigning figures of Kumortuli and despite the threats from the ‘theme artists’, they are booked by major puja organisers who admire the old school. Women are not lagging behind. Kumortuli boasts of the presence of some 30-odd women-artisans, like Minati Pal, Soma Pal, Kanchi Pal and Chapa Rani Pal. They have been in the business of idol making for a long time.[13] Kumortuli’s own Durga Puja dates back to 1933. The image maker was Gopeswar Pa
I made this shadow box as a gift for our at-home daycare provider (my second boy just moved on to kindergarten). I found the frame at the Container Store - two sturdy hangers on the back and the size was just right to build up off of an 8x16 baseplate. Gift was a total hit and one I recommend if you're looking for a personal thank-you project. Packing in the details was a great building challenge :-)
