This is in a place called Shea Goru -literally meaning Cold Valley- in

the Western Himalayas (Himachal Pradesh, India). The sun was going

behind the mountains, giving beautiful highlights to the clouds. Used

a Variable ND to get the water flow. Shot in RAW and developed in the

digital darkroom. Comments & critiques will be appreciated.

Thanx Jim Downs. The photo did need opening up. Had kept the upper areas dark, to keep the focus on the horses, but will redo it by bringing out the details.

Took this while travelling, at the Manu Temple at Old Manali, Himachal

Pradesh, India. Background was cluttered, so extracted the subject,

changed the BG and converted to B/W. Critiques will be appreciated.

Thanx for your observations Stephen Penland. I'll remember the advice. And it's people like you who make the PN community better.

Simple composition with only the setting sun, the empty sky and the

hill in it. Converted to BW in PS as I thought it adds to the

simplicity even more being devoid of colours which may distract

attention. Frame added. Critiques pl.

Its simply beautiful...the layered hills accentuated by the dark clouds..lovely
