You say inside the rock????? Which rock?
Is this the "same rock" are you referring to, Antonio? You are saying that the cave is below this?

No Asher, not at all.
The Ajanta Caves are a complex of caves.
"According to UNESCO, these are masterpieces of Buddhist religious art that influenced Indian art that followed.[5] The caves were built in two phases, the first phase starting around the 2nd century BCE, while the second phase built around 400–650 CE according to older accounts, or in a brief period of 460–480 CE according to later scholarship.[6] The site is a protected monument in the care of the Archaeological Survey of India,[7] and since 1983, the Ajanta Caves have been a UNESCO World Heritage Site."
I was meaning we were inside this cave, inside this big, large rock which is the mountain itself !
Worth a moment to read !

This is quite common - markings or arrows signalling a path are colour-coded.
Mountain theme again. This was taken 10 years ago - looking up to the summit. The two larger dots on the snow are people on their way up.
Best regards

Impressive ! I am sure it is a hard climbing...

This is a river flowing through a terrain of forests and bushes..... that's how it seems!
I like that you are also drawn to texture and contrast here of the macro nature of the rock with the crack filled with what appears to be pine needles.
I would hope you might find further examples.
This is the kind of picture that could be insisted by some to be in monochrome.
I like recognizing the green lichen on the dual tone blue rock!

Now that is a distinguished Rock!
It has character and an open mouth and a large tooth!

One of your very best, Antonio! I love those comb effects on the front rock!
This has enough texture variations and units of shape and shade that it should be remarkable as a B&W photograph too.
