I'm looking at the temple wonder how it glows like that. Seems as it has a halo around the silhouette. Weird.

Looks like a painting when you download the "large" view. (1024 x 768) :roll:

The temple there does look a little different from the rest.

Well - it was photoshopped for cropping and detail enhancing. But most of that white glow comes from a combination of the sun being so low and partially illuminating a low fog layer, and the HDR process which brightened the area between the dark temple and the darker upper clouds.

reading is good! :roll:

I was just about to say it looks like someone's attempt at HDR.
