Tears...
One of the people who stands very high on my “EXPHO” (Excellent Photographers) list is
Here are some photographs he has just posted:

I can’t compare the photographs. I just look, and enjoy each one. No matter if I have the bestest camera in the whole world…I could never, ever, produce images like these.
A couple of them brought involuntary tears to my eyes. They were not tears of joy or sorrow…it’s an interesting concept I have learnt in my life, that there can be tears of beauty. I have shed tears of beauty when I finally saw the Pieta by Michaelangelo. I shed them when I was in the small public terrace in Trump Tower in Manhattan, looked up at the sun right overhead, and saw two perfect concentric rainbows, which I have never seen before or after. I have shed them when I seen the Himalayas, no matter how many times.
Thank you for those images, Yathin.
