Jury comments:
average photos
will be better if either chettinad or temple architecture are focused on rather than both…having just spent some time traveling thru chettinad I see a lotta potential.

2 building types and 3 focus areas are mentioned. Could one handle all thes in such a short time?

interesting photographs

good pic of the bridge; good light; Temple pic is not so good; bad lighting;
interesting topic

Wonder how the Pamban bridge was shot.Is there any tall structure next to it??
Tamilnadu has got varied architectural langauges.Candidate has to explain which part he is going to study.
