December 2010 wallpaper

After having skipped the November 2010 wallpaper due to some technical difficulties here is the December 2010 wallpaper.

The photo for the December 2010 wallpaper was taken at the beach on the east coast of India. I was traveling in Orissa and stayed a week in Puri, a city well known for the Jagannath Temple. Just north of Puri lies the small fishing village Polkata where I spent two days shooting the life of the local fishermen. The colored flags on the photo are placed directly on the beach surrounded by the fishing boats.

For photos from the fishing village please visit the India: Polkata gallery (black & white).

Although the image breaths of a certain tranquility it was much less like that at the time. While my camera was registering the image I was beating mosquitoes from my legs and forehead while trying not the hit my tripod…
