Qutub Shahi Tomb Carving Detail
| Camera | Konica Minolta 7d |
| Lens | Tameron EX 28-200mm f/2.8 @ 70mm |
| Shutter / Aperture | 1/160s / f/11 |
| ISO | 100 |
Despite some of the tombs being in rather poor states of disrepair some of the features of the tombs are positively remarkable. I could not stop marvelling at the carving work.
Creating a hundred meters or so of this seamless carving must have been quite a task!

Incredible! Architecture like this always amazes me--that people put so much effort into making their buildings beautiful. I just don't often see this type of craftsmanship in the States... And then, I'm in awe of the fact that they could carve these out of stone so uniformly--I can't even do much with clay!
