The sculptures of the dansuesses on the 1000 year old temple.

The Rajarani temple, dating back to the eleventh century exudes grace and elegance. The sculptural images of the temple are very elegant and lively, especially the beautiful female figures.

The stone carvings are very intricate as you can see

The light was rather harsh, as it is usual in India

    Great shots. Are these in Hyderabad? I had a chance to visit there last year, but didn't get as much time to take pictures as I would have liked.
