I can imagine that, it is a very nice capture and I think both pictures are very special and hard to compare with one and other.

Thanks Tony. Actually I had put the third pic in the front, but the current No 1 is my hot favorite.

Yes indeed it is. Now was not a good time for spotters, but since I had some free time I grabbed the opportunity. Will be visiting again in December. Its very near to my native place where I keep travelling every month for work.
