Sunset at Old Fort


I was lucky to catch this setting sun in camera the other day when I visited 'Old Fort'. Also known as Purana Quila, it is the oldest fort in Delhi and tells the history of Delhi in detail.

    Beautiful image Shweta. I've seen numerous documentaries on India and have always been struck by the mystical element of the country. Your image captures this beautifully. There is something about your skies in India - very magical. Also love the palms.
