Hello Jan.
Thanks for this wonderful picture of these traditional buildings in what I imagine is a remote area. Wonderful light, earthy colours, and good composition to really show us what they look like. Terrific sharp details. I appreciate your note about the elephant trunk! Great shot.
Regards,
Andrew
