245. Mask in the Naggar Castle

Naggar Castle, built of wood and stones, is a medieval castle converted into Heritage Hotel run by Himachal Pradesh Tourism Department.

It has a mini gallery, more specifically a collection of very traditional items of Himalayas. The big masks dominate the artifacts hung on the walls.

I took this picture with a medium range zoom lens to get the selective focus effect. It really worked! Looks like the face is coming out of the sky!

I love Naggar Castle and the Gallery close by. This is a beautiful shot. I hope you took few shots from the gallery if they permit so...

@Niranjan, Dhiraj: Thanks!

@Saru: Well, this gallery is in the castle itself. They didn't object for photography.
