Tijara is a historic town situated 48 kms North East of Alwar. Its old name was Trigartpur. It was the capital of the Mewat and has a long and glorious history of bravery and sacrifice. There is a popular Jain temple, visited by lakhs of pilgrims every year.

Great stuff! Awesome contrasts.
But I liked other pictures from this set more.
Wonderful shot!
The lights & the shadows has been very well potrayed.
Good Shot , if possible look at the short film by pixar "bird on wire". This shot makes me remember it.
Your photos always take me places while I sit here at my desk in new mexico. I love this picture...the shadows, red color and depth of the green on the landscape. I dream of next time i go to india..
Wonderful!!!

Agree with Mayuri.. reminds one of Rang de Basanti.. I would've expected a stitch of four photos to be much longer.. did you take each 'vertically'.. just saw the high-res version.. the palace/fort in the distance is simply fab!!!
Bhai, will you STOP proving you're busy and put a damn picture here?
Been a week man :-/
WOWeee!!!
Reminds me of Golconda fort in Hyderabad...
Awesome. Gives me a feeling of some muted pain and nostalgia... ruins always do. But usually it's difficult for a photograph to give me that feeling. This one does.
