Three Musketeers
Category: People 'n Portraits

Found these three men at a farm, near Mandya. They were ploughing the farm and getting the field ready for the next crop:

Caught the first one taking a break from ploughing to smoke a 'beedi'. The pic is taken using the Canon EF 400mm f/5.6L telephoto lens, handheld in Av mode, f/6.3, ISO-400 for a 1/1000s exposure.

Soon, the second guy stopped for his break and 'beedi'. This pic also comes from the same lens, Av mode, ISO-400, f/6.3 for a 1/1250s exposure.

The 3rd musketeer headed for his lunch break soon after and I had my third shot too :) This pic is also with the 400mm telephoto lens, handheld, Av mode, f/6.3, ISO-400 for a 1/640s exposure.

Your shots remind me that it has been ages since i walked barefoot on earth..such brown mud! Never since childhood. :(

The second one is such a common posture here in our villages. Nice captures!
