Thanks, miss @caitycat! I honestly couldn't get enough of this view. I actually had a revelation while in that boat. As someone who always shoots wide open with suuuper fast lenses (I rarely stop down below 2.8) I discovered the awesomeness of smaller apertures and the crispness they afforded me. Haven't found many other instances that inspire me to stop down, but...was nice to find myself in a setting that called for it.

I feel the same way. I miss it a lot. Perhaps I'll return someday.

India is one of those countries where you just can't get enough pictures of! Love the colours of this. Specially the turquoise and obviously the reflection is gorgeous. So may details of this make it perfect. The yellow boat to the right and the yellow sign to the left, perfect balance.
