Hi Arunabha,
First of all I wish to say I liked your intro note.You expressed some of my feelings exactly...TE is a great place to see and behold.The scene here in your image is indeed amazing and you get an inkling of what the earth may have looked like in its beginning.The quality is note so good...rather too much noise.See you again...keep well.
Regards, David
