This photo is taken at the top of the 83m high Rock Fort - the only outcrop in the otherwise flat land of the city of Trichy in Tamil Nadu. Looking back down towards the hazy city, we see another decorative Hindu temple.

this is better than a stunning view. your composition and use of the surreal haze really puts me in that spot. seeing this is an experience, which is EXACTLY what a photo in this theme should be.
well, well, well done!

Beautiful photo, what can I say that hasn't already been said? Congratulations on getting it published. I love your photos, you are a wonderful photographer and it's great to be able to see places that I will probably never have the chance to visit in my lifetime and every picture you take makes me feel like I'm standing right next to you....Bravo!
