Odd shot in Monochrome

A bucket on the roof?! Hmm... used to carry paint for an exterior paint job! Otherwise also used for rain harvesting?!

  6. You have combined two in one too. I lke the mono, really emphaises the textures and the bucket is just plain odd sat there.

  7. Very interesting shot of a simple scene in the city.
    I always wonder how you manage to get shots like these? Even the cats were on tops of roofs. Do you really climb up there?

  10. Maybe this is the "pro-active variation" of putting a bucket under a leak in the roof? After all... those Mumbai rains... I've heard they can't be trusted. Not a bit. No warning whatsoever.

  11. There is so much to see in this photo! The little bucket is an odd thing to find on a roof. So are the plants! Well done!

  12. That looks like a real homemade solution to something. All that's missing is a little duct tape!
