Konark Sun Temple is a 13th-century Sun Temple (also known as the Black Pagoda), at Konark, in Orissa. It was constructed from oxidized and weathered ferruginous sandstone by King Narasimhadeva I (1238-1250 CE) of the Eastern Ganga Dynasty. The temple is a mix of Orissan and Dravidian styles of architecture that alludes to the dynasty's Ganga and Chola ancestry. The temple is one of the most renowned temples in India and is a World Heritage Site. It is one of the Seven Wonders of India (as per the poll collected by NDTV).
Konark was built a few years after a scion of the dynasty visited and made rich donations to the ancient Koneswaram temple of Trincomalee in the name of King Chodaganga Deva on Puthandu 1223 CE. - wikipedia.

Mirfield
Approaching Mirfield is Jubilee 4-6-0 45581 Bihar and Orissa (55C) at the head of a parcels train which has come off the Huddersfield line. Always a favourite engine - I saw it here and at Farnley on many occasions.
In the background a freight is coming down the Calder Valley main line heading for Healey Mills behind Wakefield WD 2-8-0 90429.
I did not think I would be able to get anything from this very badly under-exposed slide - but Photoshop has helped to restore things albeit a bit fuzzy.

Jagannatha is viewed as the incomparable god and the sovereign ruler of the Odishan realm. The whole custom example of Jagannatha has been imagined keeping such twin perspectives in view. The custom arrangement of the sanctuary is exceptionally detailed and complex including a huge number of functionaries over one thousand spread more than one hundred classifications.http://www.pilgrimjourney.in/shri-jagannath-temple/
