Doors of India

Daily Photo – Doors of India
India is filled with all sorts of amazing temples and fine examples of Mughal architecture. When visiting the famous places, there are often a lot of "periphery" buildings that are quite empty. The crowds flock to the centers of these places, but all kinds of little treasures wait around the edges. I think being a photographer (beginner or advanced) helps you to enjoy the other bits as much as the major bits.
The only problem, if it can be considered a problem, is that you are constantly over-stimulated by any place that is remotely interesting! There is a bit of sensory-overload, but I guess there are worse things in life!
Comments on the Site
We have thousands of posts here and other subpages. Comments get sprinkled in all over the place every day. I do my best to respond, so please do not take it personally if I can’t get back and answer a question. I was thinking about hiring someone to do it for me – but that seems kinda strange… so I’ll just keep trying to do my best!
I noticed a sour grape over on the About Me page. I always leave up negative and critical comments (unless they are outright offensive). We run about 99% positive around here, but I’m always open to dissenting opinions, as in this one from "TRC" below:

sorry, but your photos look way to clarified and contrasted that it completely defeats the purpose of SLR photography. . . . . .
If i wanted wanted a shot that has every thing sharp in it, i’d use a point and shoot.
Where is the shallow depth of field, its like you’ve maxed out the clarity levels in every photo and crushed the blacks in every photo. . . . .
You photos look crap.

great photo as usual,
interesting comment he left
i’m guessing he didn’t show you his amazing photos?
I think this photo is fabulous….end of story
really? a pns can get you shots like these? hm.. (i wanna see this TRC’s stream, if (s)he has one.. link?)
this’s got fine detail (as usual), but i don’t like that dark spot bottom center, and how the perspective is slightly angled (of course, you’d know how to fix without me giving the howto)..
interesting subject… sensory overload.. yep, but that is why whey make BIG memory cards…. go for it… I say.. he he.. that delete button works a treat…. great shot BTW..

Seen on my Flickr home page. (?)
Great texture in these old walls!
Don’t feel bad, Trey. I was once told that kittens die when I do HDR processing.
your works always amazed me!
your photos look way to clarified and contrasted that it completely defeats the purpose of SLR photography
think he needs to find something else to try sound intelligent at. awesome work
Beautiful composition….
Excellent shot! So what door did you choose to enter?
Don’t sweat the comment… Your work inspires me every day. Thanks for all that you do!
Like the texture! The blue decorations seem a bit oversaturated
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder: you can’t expect to please everybody, and you won’t, whatever you do.
I think you’re a great photographer: much better than me. What you do to your photos after taking them tends to detract from them, to my eye. But you like it, and plenty of other people like it, so you don’t need to pay any attention to me.
Awesome shot! I love the feel of this!
Incidentally, it’s hardly surprising that most of the comments you get are admiring. Most people who really don’t like your photos will take a quick look and then vanish without bothering to comment. There are plenty of other photos to look at on Flickr.
Furthermore, I sometimes feel that I’m breaking a Flickr rule of etiquette if I make a comment that’s any less than admiring. The standard comment is something like, "Wow! What a wonderful shot!"—which could be better expressed by using the ‘Add to faves’ button.
Most of the comments on my photos are favourable, too: what’s more significant is that I have far fewer visitors and comments…
Excellent
splendid realisation
well done
Great shot, nice color and texture.
Love the architecture here
Excellent shot, and nice composition, great HDR ? awesome
Well this is a great photo. Nice colors and tones.
You did a great HDR-job"
Excellent HDR shot, Great beauty.
lovely!
Beautiful processing!
The person’s comment would be even MORE funny if there were MORE typos in it.
Great work,even better viewed LARGE !
Awesome work (as per usual). I guess he’s one of the people who can’t see HDR the way we can
poor fellow, he’s missing out on so much!
Espléndida !!!
Great details, Trey. Not so safe to visit these days. Such a pity:(
Love this Trey – a work of art!
Very cool. I love it.
Great work!!!
Is there a link to this condescending person’s stream? i bet not (if there is… please post it up). Your stream is cool, different and inspiring… the people who do not see this are either not fans of HDR (and I have seen some really bad HDR on flickr, yours are done very well) or just jealous
Keep up the good work fella 
Hi, I’m an admin for a group called Noble Architecture, and we’d love to have this added to the group!
amazing processing!
