Hindu temples are really magnificent in their stonework. And this is a good example of it.

In technical terms the capture of the details is nice but the strong brightness makes that we cannot appreciate them completely as the image gets a bit aggressive. Reducing the brightness could be a good idea.

Also the chosen frame, although nice, in this case as the framing is very tight to the subject makes that the photo becomes even tighter, especially in the top part. A more traditional frame could be a good idea in this case.

Hi Archana - You captured some very fine details of this temple - I like the image - but perhaps is it a little overexposed - thanks Archana for sharing.
