This shot was taken at Worli, where the sun looks more beautiful than ever, as it ends its day to this city! As I look at this shot, I can only remember these lines that one of my favorite Urdu Poets, Javed Akhtar, had written in his first book - Tarkash (Quiver) -
oonchi imaaraton se makaan mera ghir gaya,
kuch log mere hisse ka suraj bhi kha gaye...
(my house has been surrounded by high buildings;
I have been robbed of my share of the sun today)
Are we really in the quest to reach to high that we forget giving the light to the people who simply look at us travel till there?
For the heights and its complexities...

You're getting even better at sunset shots, Rahul.
I'm feeling grateful that there are no buildings blocking the view of the sunset from my house.
lol, tell me about tall buildings blocking our views, Alexa!!:)
Isn't NY filled with tall buildings all over too?? I really admire tall buildings but not at the cost of cutting down on natural beauty!!
