8 Jul 17 Comment The colors are truly captivating.... psychedelic !!! perhaps the lower half of the image could be a bit darker; reflections in the water are usually darker than the original source of the light/color. I suggest you darken the greens a bit to avoid two colors clashing and fighting for attention. Jul 25th
8 Jul 17 Comment The strength of this image is the perfect timing and perspective. The sun in perfectly behind the tower and the reflection lead us to the center of the attraction. The horizon is tilted; Sukumar's additions and changes is appealing and created a nice mood. Jul 25th
8 Jul 17 Comment Very nice indeed, the real flag and the larger painted maple leaf reinforce the form and existence of each. I also liked the idea of a two-way flow of the people...... The multi-colored painted leaf symbolizes the multicultural peoples of Canada. Jul 25th
8 Jul 17 Comment Thank you for this powerful image---- as you know, how important is empowerment of women to me. I liked your image very much for two reasons: (1)choice of the theme, and (2) technical execution of the idea. You point out very effectively the problem of gender discrimination and the threat to women chemists. Chemistry is not the only science where women professionals suffer badly. It is equally if not more seriously in social sciences as well. For instance, since the Nobel prize was established, a total of 78 Nobel prizes were awarded in the "Economic Sciences"; among them only one was a woman received it (Elinor Ostram). Outside the sciences, the situation is not any better. For instance, in world soccer, the US women's team is ranked # 1 in the world for years and continues to win world titles. Compared to this, the US men's soccer team does not show up among the top 30 ranks (it is 35th now). And yet, when the men's team wins a match, each player gets a bonus $$$ as an incentive; but the men get more than 10X higher bonus than what the women players get, if at all, when they win a game. Top US women players have filed a class action suit against the US Soccer Federation. One can argue that $$$ amount is related to the ticket sales; in reality, it is not. Even if so, why should a # 1 world ranking team players get less (negative incentive?) compared to that what a # 35 ranked team players get? There are numerous unfair gender gaps/disparities in so many domains. Sorry, if I sound agitated; but I am fully justified. This an issue that we all should be concerned with; photographers have a major role in this struggle.
