A Mughal Tax-Office .... by KarmaSong
Open full image in new tabDescription
 One of my most vivid memories of my holiday in Rajasthan a year ago was the visit to Amber Fort, an imposing palace built and extended on the top of a mountain by Raja Man Singh, Commander in Chief of Mughal Emperor Akbar's army , in the 16th century. The photo features the Sattais Katcheri, an hypostyle hall of beautiful columns and polyfoil arches. In this place, scribes would sit to receive and record taxes and revenue brought to the Raja,while enjoying breathtaking views over the mountains and valley of Amber.

A very beautiful picture. Well composed and presented.
Wow, absolutely splendid composition. You are a master of ambient lighting. I love the contrast between the hard stone and the soft light and how the dark line of the stone gives such an accent. I can imagine this being a very special place to both work in and visit.
Very good composed and just about perfect lighting and colors. It's a joy to watch your images!
