Hills of tea
This photo is from a tea plantation in Munnar, India. The lines you see in the background are where farm workers walk through the tea plants picking tender leaves by hand. Located in a hilly region with a lot of rainfall, everything is green and there are lot of small streams and waterfalls.I included the rusty barbed wire fence and post in the foreground to give some scale to contrast with the clean and natural background. Also I think the fog rolling in gives an overall peaceful look to the image.

I like the composition. The fence gives it a sense of depth and the fog adds to the mysterious environment. The thumbnail does the full picture no justice. Nice work.
You're a fine photographer Ahamed!
I am a tea person. and it is interesting to see the tea garden of tea-growing center. (India is the world's largest producer of Tea)
Seems to be really quite, really pacefull. It's difficult to think about the stress living in a place like that.
Thanks very much for the comments everyone.
I don't normally drink tea but getting a cup "fresh from the plant" was very good.
Thanks for the comments, I appreciate it.
I like the barbed wire in the foreground. Very interesting with the wide open space in the background.
