    Darn... Donald has used the word I was intending to use, "superb" now I have to figure out a new word... I looked in a Thesaurus and came up with this: "impressively splendid". But, that is cumbersome to use so, I will revert to my original thought, "superb"

    I like everything about this shot, the hats of the seated crowd tell me that this is India and they direct my attention to the ring, which is slightly off center maintaining my interest. The standing crowd on the opposite side of the ring balances out the composition while the buildings and those impressive cliffs crown the image.

    This is artistically and technically superb - oh heck, there is that darned word again....

    IMO you get six stars out of five!

    Okay i like the closeup and it shows me what has been puzzling me about the original shot. I don't see any power lines. Is there electricity in this community?

    Good observation Brian... The over head power lines are very much there but I made sure I positioned myself in such a way that they were behind me when I took the shots.
