A wonderful way to present this image. It really looks like it could have been taken so many years ago.

This is exactly perfect for dealing with the sky. Not only did it solve a problem, when I saw this on my feed, it was simply perfect! It really emphasizes the resting figure, stairs, and temple and removes all distracting elements.

A timeless image...although one has to wonder if the current generation will continue these pilgrimages once they grow older...
