Daily Photos 4th year

At the Daily Gallery one picture, preferably taken that day; is shared with others. While that is difficult to follow (shooting everyday) I have been putting up a picture everyday and this is my FOURTH year. It's been an enjoyable time viewing pictures of other members and learning new techniques and customs from different places. I think this is the best way to travel to places while sitting at home, and also making friends on the way! It has been a pleasure sharing my pictures and I thank all of you for taking the time to comment on my pictures. Earlier galleries: First year - Second year - Third year - Critiques welcome!

Its sound is thought to create and maintain a sense of auspiciousness and sanctity and, as a result, is widely used during marriages, processions, and in temples of West India, although it is also played in concerts. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shehnai

  • 4th year Pic 275 - Dec - 21 2012. <span style="color:yellow">Mayo college</span> - Ajmer <span style="color:cyan">Critiques welcome! BEST seen in large size </span> In 1870, Lord Mayo, the then Viceroy and Governor General, came to Ajmer, where in a Darbar, before the Chiefs of the ruling Princes of Rajputana, he expressed his desire to set up a 'Raj Kumar College' in Ajmer, "devoted exclusively to the education of the sons of Chiefs, Princes and leading Thakurs." The College was opened in October 1875, with Sir Oliver St.John as the first Principal and one boy, Maharaja Mangal Singh of Alwar. The Main Building was completed in 1885 and was designed by Major Mant. Today, students from all walks of life, study in this prestigious school and make complete use of the many facilities offered. http://www.mayocollege.com/

    Oh this is SO beautiful, Harsh! I really like the very unique crop & the wonderful details.
    Yes, I do remember Ravi Shankar, absolutely love his music. It's sad to hear of his passing but I'm also glad to hear he lived to the age of 92, that's a wonderful long life.
