The rising moon is visible between the legs of India Gate.

India Gate is a major landmark in Delhi, a memorial for fallen soldiers during World War I, the Northwest Frontier operations and the 1919 Afghan fiasco. The Afghan fiasco? With a title like that, it's gotta be interesting!!

The sun sets behind India Gate.
