That is such a beautiful view! I'll be sure to look up the story more behind it, thank you for a little of the history. Hinduism has always interested me. Welcome to VB :) I hope to see more of your travels.

The post-processing is beautifully done. Subtle, but it has a great impact on the quality of the image.
