Photographer's Note
I shot this pic at the Golden Temple.....from the roof.
The Golden temple is considered holy by Sikhs because the eternal Guru of Sikhism, the Sri Guru Granth Sahib, is always present inside in it and its construction was mainly intended to build a place of worship for men and women from all walks of life and all religion to come and worship God equally. [4][5] The Sri Guru Granth Sahib is the holiest literature in the Sikh religion [6], the tenth Guru of Sikhism, Guru Gobind Singh on 7th October 1708 made it the eternal Sikh Guru and the leader of Sikhism. [7] Anywhere in the world where the Guru Granth Sahib is present is equally holy and precious to Sikhs. Amritsar is the location of Harmandir Sahib.

Kudos for such a dramatic pov Pushpinder. When I ent to ha place I was overcome by the sense of hospitality and calm. So much that I forgot my camera and just soaked in the holy ambaince. Great shot to celebrate the place

Hi Pushpinder,
I have never seen the Golden Temple shot from this point of view, I think it is great. Love white building squeezed inbetween the two golden domes. Nice idea.
Regards
Wanda
