Something fresh for the new year

Eye-catching photos in a calendar

FAYZA HAQ
ONE of the calendars this year that catches the eye is byHallmark Pharmaceuticals that has been illustrated by four photos by Dr Noazish Ahmed and contains quotations from Jiban Ananda Das.
The first three months carry a remarkable photograph of delicate green yellow-green leaves, tendrils and stems. There are the highlights of white and yellow on the green and the image is seen against a backdrop of black. The tenderness and delicacy of the plant appear like some delicate filigree work in some work of art while the backdrop remains dramatic and nonpareil. These carry the lines, "Kochi lebu patar moto norm shobuj alue prithibi bhorey giechey..."
Next we see the image of a tree branch with its aerial roots, seen on top of a calm blue gray river in which is seen a boat with its young rower. On the still gray water is the shadow of a large tree with its endless dark leaves and numerous branches. Beyond are the clear sky and the

For the warm months of July, August and September, one gets the delineation of the river bending and curving through fields of ripe harvest seen in yellow and green with the far trees in a line of blue under the blue and pink clear sky. The river and the sky match in colour while the fields are clearly divided up in sections by gray and

The calendar has plenty of space for making small notes and the months are neatly spaced out. The pictures and poetry accompanying the months are meaningful enough, although one felt that one did not have enough of Dr Noazish's photographs and could do with some more of the moving lines on nature by Jiban Ananda Das, who

The scene is a peaceful one indeed and one expects birds and fish to appear onto the idyllic spot any moment. There is a lot of brown and black in the photo which is touched up with hints of blue and green. Even the boy in the boat appears an integral part of nature while the aerial roots and branches

The last photograph in the calendar bears the image of the golden disc of the setting sun seen against the delicate black branches of bushes and surrounded by more such delicate plants. All around is the orange glow of the sky blended
