Ok the pictures do not do this place justice. If you want to see some more they are HERE (http://www.ambrosiabbs.com/gallery/list.php?exhibition=196&u=1568014,1) and if you want to see them bigger click on them.

Truly an amazing place.....

The horizon seems a bit off on the first pic IMHO. However, the colors, exposures and croppings are excellent. I like the fifth pic best.

Even if not doing justice for Amritsar, this is a great set of pictures, Neil. Love them.

I think you are right about that but I had a real job trying to get it right, If i use the level of the lake on the bridge to set the horizontal (and that is the only thing I know is level) it throws the roofline of the white building right out, If I use the roof of the white building as the horizontal then you could water ski on the lake without a boat.

This was the best compromise I could come up with but I will revisit is as the more I look at it the more "not right" it looks, I just can't work out how to make it right :-(

I have had another attempt to get the horizon/perspective correct in that first shot, whilst this is better I am still not sure it's right :-(
