5.0 out of 5 stars More than Photography, 14 Jan 2005
By Mohan Palanisamy (Kent, United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
Great Work!
For someone who looks forward to see the beauty and accomplishments of Tamil Nadu, sorry this is not the one you are looking for.
But what you go through when you skip thru the pages is the sense of being there, participating in day to day life among the tamils. The magnificent temples, architecture, landscape, just serve as a backdrop.
What I understand as idea behind this effort is not to market TamilNadu as one among hundreds of attrations of India, but to project the humanism behind the efforts of legendery kings, magnificent architectures and the civilisation itself. The short introduction by the author summarising his understanding and experiences in the southern land is very impressive.
Finally to enjoy this great effort you should have been in the land before and must have some knowledge about its past(spanning about 2000-2500 years)

3.0 out of 5 stars This was a disappointment compared to Ganges, Rajastan ., 31 May 1999
By A Customer
These pictures, though some are interesting, don't have the beauty and density of those found in other of his woriks. One will not come away with any sense of the landscape or cityscapes of Tamil Nadu. There are too many shots of individuals, but not enough sense of place, and on the whole, not the painterly quality he usually brings to his work.
