A woman stands in front of sculptures in the Elephanta Caves
“Terrifyingly beautiful” is how Jay Vardhan Singh described these images.
This description is extremely appropriate. These photos are undoubtedly stunning, but also eerie in the way that they make you feel something. Perhaps it has more to do with the contrast between a relatively small “modern” human and the ancient, divine and overbearing sculptures behind her.
