This is the out side view of the beautiful Gothic-style chapel which is a part of one of Mumbai's oldest and famous colleges - St. Xaviers College. When we talk about St. Xaviers College, this is the picture that comes to the mind and not the actually structure of the College. I had not thought anything about the lighting angle but after taking the picture I believe it came perfectly.

Amit, dear friend,
This is the most beautiful building and perfectly captured, but ...
I was shocked to see the basket at the entrance !!! LOL
Is the place a basket ball ground or am I grossly mistaken ?
BTW welcome amongst my friends !!! LOL

I like the contrast between the old architecture and the new basketball net.

I have to admit that the basketball stand caught my eye first thing...and since you were showing the college (at least symbolically), it is appropriate. The shadows are OK on this one by me also...because most of the church is in the sunlight and the student (who is not the subject of this shot) is in shadow. It is ok that the student is there, but that beautiful church shouldn't have to compete with him as a focus point. Very interesting church architecturally, and parts of it might be worth a closer look, photographically.

thank u for appreciating the photograph. I couldn't help the student begin there cause most of the time the ground is filled with students. so its kinda lucky to just get off with only one student being in the picture. But i would have also like it if there were no one around when the pic was taken.
