I dont know how much of this is computer and how much actually photographed, but it is a nice and unique change

I’m also curious about whether this image is “digitally enhanced”, if not it certainly is unusual and rather spectacular light. And a great composition too.

Interesting picture; I didn’t know that the flags had writing on them. I would have liked to see a bit more of the mountains though.
Rajib Singha
This is for the curious minds to note that not a bit of the photograph is ‘computer or digitally enhanced’ sans a simple auto contrast treatment in PS. And also it is commonplace to see sacred writings on Buddhist prayer flags all over the place. Regards.

I love it! I’m a “color freak” and prayer flags certainly fit the bill. Love the peaking mountain, too. And the wonderful focus. Good job!
