I was in Bhadra Wildlife Sanctuary in India. It was 31st of December and the sun was about to set. I had parked my vehicle to enjoy the sunset and reflecting on the year coming to an end. There was an alarm call on the opposite hill indicating the presence of a tiger or leopard. The sloping hills and shola forests were glowing in the sunlight. The sky didn't look very exciting but I thought of capturing it.

ISO 800 (yes ISO 800. Just can't recollect why I selected ISO 800. I swear I was not in an inebriated state at that time). Look forward to your comments and also suggestions on a title.

Hey Sabyasachi,
I like the lines you have presented in the FG leading our eyes down the path through the image. I was originally going to recommend adding contrast......but this often minimizes haze or fog.....and I find that important in this image. My only recommendation is to further minimize the sky....cutting it in 1/2 (middle of left side) as this will further emphasize the rolling hills. Try it using the browser crop......this will give you a better idea on how it will affect the image. I still like it as presented.
Good suggestions from above. Love the beautiful lighting and lines in this capture. The eye is taken back to the furthest corner of this image. Beautiful work !!!
