About The main image in this picture is a 'Clock Tower'. My Home Town is 'Mandi Town'. It is one of the oldest town of Himachal Pradesh(Himachal Pradesh is a beautiful Himalayan state of India, situated in north India). Mandi town is the Head Quarter of District Mandi. Many years ego (it is said)it was a beautiful lake. But it was been converted in to a garden. Now there is a shoping complex surrounded it. This place is the heart of Mandi town. This town is known as the 'Land of lord Shiva' There are about 60 temples in this town. One thing more that this town is the gateway to Kullu-Manali, the world's famous tourist place. Manali is only 105 km from Mandi. Presently I am not living in this town. I am living with my family in 'Kullu-Manali' due to Government service. My parents are and other relative are there. Yes, Often I used to go there at least once in a month.

Thanks to all for your love and appriciation the beauty of this town.

Interesting architecture of that center house. Very good night shot. I really cannot understand these ratings: how can you have 7s in Overall, if that should be the summary of all the other, much lower, ratings? Crazy!

Nice one. Again no information !!. Shiv, where is this place? Looks like a nice place to have your home there.


John Hatziemmanouil   {K:40580} 10/31/2003
Nice one Shiv. Well perchaps the white light at the main building is little bit strong. Not big deal. Perchaps if you use the same exposure timing but with smaller aperture or using the white fix tool the result could be better. Nice as it is!


Mari Mar   {K:11396} 11/1/2003
Good composition, lovely town, congrats, Shiv!


Armando Jorge   {K:7937} 11/1/2003

Gerhard Fuehring   {K:4280} 11/1/2003
Hi, seems to be a nice place where You are living - good shot.
The Dieng-Plateau is in the eastern part of Java (Indonesia). It's about 2000 meters over sealevel and famous for it's vulcanic activities (geysir, sulfur and brimstone crystals, bubbling mudd) which are really impressing. I made this shot in the early morning on a trip in 1999. My long india-trip was in early 2000.

I'd like to ask what and where?What beautiful gallery?Some shops?Nice shot!Your country and town is so exotic to me that I want to know every detail.


Javed Rassi   {K:8150} 11/4/2003
Good night photograph but part of the lights are washing out(overexposed). Manual exposure with spot metering would have done it. Good effort though.


Gaetan Chevalier   {K:4188} 11/5/2003
Beautiful night shot!


Snehendu Kar   {K:2427} 11/6/2003

Wow, a beautiful home town. I love the shape of the buildings. Great night shot with sharp details and you took it from an excellent angle giving a nice view of the city. I also appreciate your explanation of the town. Great job!


benjamin mati   {K:598} 1/23/2004
nice shot, thanks for the words about your hometown. Its tough to shoot a familiar place. i think the light from the clock face is a little bit too overexposerd.
