Mrs. Kaadian and I went to Jaipur at the weekend.
One of the places we visited was the Taj Rambagh Palace. It is a 5 star resort in the heart of Jaipur. And what a place ! Everything solid marble, spotlessly clean, and when you have spent any time in India you know what an achievement that is. We went there for lunch. I had the most amazing tomato soup I have had in a very, very long time. I also had “Bay of Bengal Shrimp” oh ! my ! lord ! Who knew that you had to go to the middle of the desert to get the best shrimp you had ever tasted.
While I was there I took this picture:

Clik here to view.
It was converted to black and white using the “Silver Efex Pro” plug-in from Nik software.
I think I need to keep better records of what I do as I don’t remember exactly which film simulation I used.
Oh dear.
The second image is oddly enough another black and white image.
I was really attracted to the play of the light around the base of the “thrown”.

Again converted with the Silver Efex Pro.
