BETTER PHOTOGRAPHY

110

This month, we challenged our readers to capture the dynamism of ethereal-looking

cloudscapes. Here is a look at the best images from the contest.

Marbled Sky

Surajit Ganguly, Kolkata

“It was a sunny day in

Darjeeling when I made

this picture. I was walking

about when I noticed the

wispy cloud formations.

When framing the image,

I made sure to capture

as much of the scene

as possible. This is

because I wanted to

emphasise the dynamism

of the scene—the fleeting

clouds and the bustling

marketplace. I later

converted the image

to black and white to

enhance the etherealness

of the clouds.”
