Photographer’s Note
Goa is a state on the west coast of India which was ruled by the Portuguese for 450 years and churches tend to dominate the Goan countryside. But since 45% of the population is hindu one can also find hindu places of worship like this temple. This is situated near Fort Aguada on the banks of a tributary flowing into the Mandovi river. I don't believe this is one of the more famous hindu temples in Goa (like the ShantaDurga Temple) but I chanced upon it as I was driving through the countryside. I liked the colors and I hope you do too.

Yes, Pawan, it is a beautiful coloured building. The composition is very well chosen with water in foreground and these beautiful palm trees on the background. The green landscape gives a good contrast to the colours of the temple. Congratulations.
