About I have had a mind to take some snaps over my favourite city Kolkata. I have some oppertunity to shoot. This is the first of the series. Its almost evening and the Vidyasagar Setu (commonly known as the Second Howrah Bridge or Second Hooghly Bridge) looks brilliant. U can also have a ride over ganga. The price varies from ruprees 300 to 500 which is negotiable.
Hop eu like my first post

Wow.
Excellent shot. Colors,dof, contrast are all great.
The composition is excellent.
I like the little bit of mist for the feel of depth.
Wonderful about. Good to see so much information that I would have never known of this location.
Great way to start a series!
