This is the Bahai Lotus Temple in New Delhi. This obvious lotus like building is a very peaceful place.

This view was in fact taken in broad daylight as I was only there for a few hours in the morning. As I could not see this building at night I worked on a grayscale conversion to get the image as close as I could to a night view. What made it more interesting was that lotus petals were are different angles to the sun, each reflecting the sun differently.
