Thimpu Dzong Photo

Photographer’s Note

The Thimpu Dzong is the heart of control for Bhutan. The seat of power and decision making for the small mountain country.

The clean lines and the traditional architecture make it an icon for the city.

Beautiful lines, colours and composition. Well done.
I like the structure of the building, with the yellow roofs.

Hello Vijay,
Good shot of Thimpu Dzong. The architecture is looking great and full of serenity. The background hill and the buildings over it are looking great. The POV is also great.
Thanks for sharing this great rare to seen composition. I have tried a WS.
Vijay, please excuse if your intention towards the dark part of the scene is for highlighting the center architecture only.

Nice shot of this beautiful and well maintained building. I've heard some really good things about Bhutan, but I've not seen too many photos of it, so I'm interested in seeing some more from there. Great work!

Hello Vijay!
A wonderful perspective to capture the elegance and beauty of this architectural marvel of Bhutan.
The picture also brings into focus the simplicity of this pristine land tucked away in the Himalayas.
Regards.

Nice but pales a bit in comparison to some of the other stuff you've been putting up lately! I like the way you've managed to single it out in the middle of all the rest of the confusion around.

Hi Vijay
nice view and horizontal format. i personally like the lighting in this more than the ws.

I have a few questions about Bhutan.
how did you go there and from where..?
I planned on going to Assam and Meghalaya next summer and wanted to go to Bhutan from Bhutan-Assam border, but I read that it is not advisable because of insurgency? Was it very bad and would you recommend it or not..?
Thanks!
Rahul
