The Women at Kailash Photo

Photographer’s Note

The Kailash Temple in Ellora is perhaps the pinnacle of rock-cut architecture in India. A stupendous structure, hewn out of a single rock some eight hundred years ago, Kailash is not only a mesmerizing feat of architecture, but also a centre of pilgrimage for devotees of Shiva. These women from the western part of India are among them.
(I was taking pictures inside the caves, which are really dark. So i had my ISO set at 1600. Hence, the resulting grains.)

Hi Bishan, I like how you've constructed this picture, you caught it when she was moving her arm and it's a good idea, I am just wondering why you haven't focused on the ladies...
