In Deep Thought

Temples and historic monuments are a great place to capture some deep photographic moments. Portraits in front of historic architecture have always been very popular with the masses and it is this retro touch that gives the subject a classic look.

 
In this case, I spotted this elderly individual sitting alone and lost in deep thought at the Channakeshava Temple in Belur. The rich carvings on the temple in the background formed a formidable background and I was tempted to capture this moment in monochrome to ensure it is etched in time.
