Faisalabad is known for its Clock tower built by British when they ruled over subcontinent. It is built in the center of 8 bazaars which were designed to look like British Union Jack, see google earth view.

    Hey Awais,

    I like these shots a lot. I'm not sure exactly why, but I find the second shot particularly compelling.

    Awais, that's good stuff. I especially like 2&3, i like the color of the trees. I don't know if it was the fog or if you did some PP to make the trees look that way. It worksclap.gifclap
