The Photo Editor’s Take

On 'Agony': Excellent composition and exposure control has brought out details both in the highlights and shadows. The photographer has chosen an uncluttered background to lay emphasis on the silhouetted subject. The chosen subject - street performer goes well with the theme of the contest, ‘Chennai by day and night. - D. Krishnan
