Some Odd Images of Taj Mahal

Jubilee Park Statue
Cloud Collection Exhibit
Another sky scape captured at Dimna Lake nearing the cyclonic storm, heavy post processing especially with shadows and contrast.
The dark rain clouds are complemented by the wispy cumulus (have to brush up on clouds), against a setting sun. I think this kind of a view is easily snapped, and you don't need a lake and hilly surroundings for that, but just in case, such a setting does offer wide unrestricted space. Sometimes I am questioned about post -processing, but my answer to it is - this is another form of expression, and the camera never truly gives the dynamic range of the human eye.

Temple in Perspective
Another angle of the same temple at Dalma Top. Here's some more information from mapsofindia
"Located at a height of 3000 feet above sea level, the exotic ranges are at a short distance of just 13 km from the main city of Jamshedpur. "

Tree Top again
The Treetop at Dalma Top
This is a distinctive tree at the Dalma Top, the view is superb, and so is the temperature. This was my first visit to the Dalma peak in thirty years, there is both a Shiv Mandir and a Hanuman mandir at the top. The climb is quite gradual, one can easily bike-up or drive up. Dalma is famous for its elephants, but to our despair, we could not sight any !

Dalma in Black and White
Just this morning I got a chance to visit the Deori Mandir, thanks to Deepak, Jai and Tarun, who woke me up early enough for the 130 + km drive. This was taken near the 10th Milestone hotel on the highway, actually near the petrol pump where Deepak's car has its refreshments before our long lunch and drive back home.
This view reminds me of the countless trips made to Ranchi from Jamshedpur during the engineering college days, along this road. In the background are the Dalma Hills, the foreground is branded !
