Sunset watching [Contest Finalists May 2010]

These arches are located just behind the Pakistan Monument on top of a small hill in the center of Islamabad. All arches are of same shape and size and constructed in a circle. The reflection is falling on a marble pedestal on which I placed the camera. (A night shot of the structure is here: https://www.betterphoto.com/gallery/dynoGallDetail.php?photoID=7049632).
I joined in the company of the bird and that couple who were watching the sun set behind the Margalla Hills.
