Hello Dibyendu,
This is one such image which can be sold by making postcards of this great place. Sure for this to happen PP is definitely required.
Its a composition which is both meaningful as well as pleasing.
TFS another beauty from the Ganges,
Regards,
Rajeev

Hello Dibyendu,
The temple is impressive and maybe it looks better from this position across the river than it would actually do from nearby. The crowded boats are strong competitors for the attention. They help to create a good atmosphere and to make the view look very exotic to Europeans. This is a well balanced and well composed photo.
Regards,
Gert

Hello Dibyendu
Nice picture taken of the Dakshineshwar temple from the river. The light is quite soft and I might have wished some punch in the shot...but compo wise this is good
