fantastic
Yes, as Mosses had once said.
Definitely, the pilgrims are waiting for the first ray of light to dawn upon them; except for the grains that has taken a noticeable area in the picture. I would request Mr. Dhar to visit a site http://www.photoburst.net and observe the clarity of the pictures.
The alternative combination of dense blue and vermilion is adding an extra ‘texture’ to the photography.
It’s a good photography. Infact- better.
