Photographer’s Note
here's a peaceful life scene in Raval, near Vrindavan.. the river is the sacred Yamuna..
in this place, on a lotus flower, appeared 5000 years ago Srimati Radharani who is the eternal consort of Sri Krishna the Supreme Personality of Godhead
actually in vaishnavism the supreme lord is is the couple Radha-Krsna
Krsna is the Lord as supreme loved, Radha is the Lord as supreme lover, but in their most esoteric pastimes, like the famous Rasa dance, the roles of the divine couple exchanges freely and Krsna becomes the eternal servant of Srimati Radharani. From this sacred dynamism comes all the cosmic dynamism of the spiritual and the material world...
Raval is a very peaceful place with a relatively poor temple with a little Krsna statue who is said to be sculpted 5000 years ago when Lord Krsna where still in our planet..
if you go there you'll not see a big huge marble basilica or a tall gopuram.. only a little temple in the middle of nowhere, soft sand, the magnificent Yamuna, country girls and boys, cows, buffalos..
but if you think that in that place is "born" the personified love for God, you will not go back home without some deep emotion and a huge change in your heart
Srimati Radhika Ki jaya
Raval Ki jaya
Vrindavan Dham Ki jaya

Hi Yasoda
I saw this shot already before and started a WS but I think you could do too.
I like it for the peacefull wide view, how to benefiet this photo more .....
A crop from under is it is less informative and the rest of the wiring you could clone out.
Playing around with levels sat and contrast can improve the shot too and crating some more depht in it with two layers erasing to each others.
Thanks for the peacefull view.
Henk
