Day 46 of 365: The Hindu Temple

This is the largest Hindu temple in North America! And it's right behind the Walgreen's around the corner from my parents' house! It's very, very beautiful. I visited it last spring with the 7th grade classes on a field trip. They change the colors occasionally depending on what's going on in the Hindu calendar (it was explained to us before). I was driving by and just thought this would be a cool photo, especially since I had my camera with me. I took some others that were face on without the gazebo blocking the view, but they were crooked as I was on a slight incline apparently! Either way, I still love the temple at night and the people milling about that give you a perspective on how huge it is!!!

Thank you! I'm quite pleased with it. :) I used my car as a "tripod" and am happy the color came out true to life.
