I am surprised you were allowed to take a photo of this...

It was a long process to be allowed to take a photo in this place forbidden to non muslims. It took me three month negociation during several visits to Kashmir in 2005 and 2006. The place is awesome and i feel proud of beeing probably the only person allowed to shot there. This one is for me one of my best photography ever...

Wow. That's cool, man!

Not to be nasty to you, to say I want things to be dificult or anything, but I think it is good that some temples make it so difficult for people to get in.

But I bet it was worth the effort and waiting- I cannot deny you have taken a unique, special shot here!

I agree with you, it was worth the effort and an interesting experience.

Thank you for your kind words. This is important for me and this photo as a long story. It took me 3 month of negociation to be allowed to shoot inside this awesome place. It's the only photography ever done there except the new ones I was allowed to do last june!!!

Thank you so much! This photography is my prefered from Kashmir and may be the most powerful i ever took. I was allowed to come inside the shrine and shot some photo. This is normaly strictly prohibited so i was very lucky. I just kept some distance to not disturb the prayers and this came out on a blessing day.

Très très belle photo, j'aime beaucoup. Les couleurs sont impressionnantes. As-tu retouché quoi que ce soit sur cette image ?

Shahenshah In reply to photographies [2006-11-19 19:49:26 +0000 UTC]

En fait, j'ai juste augmentΓ© un peu la saturation et jouΓ© avec les courbes pour amΓ©liorer le contraste et dΓ©boucher les ombres.

beautiful work ..
i think i may have experienced a similar moment in Villalcazar de Sirga (Spain), in the the Santa Maria la Blanca iglise .. a moment of such emotional intensity that any attempt to describe it would debase it.

Shahenshah In reply to Offering [2006-10-26 11:17:04 +0000 UTC]

Thanks,
You are right, it's very difficult indeed impossible to describe such moments.
But,..., I shoot it for eternal memories
