That is so beautiful! Great comp and lovely colors!

As a CC, it does look like there was a dust spot on your sensor that shows up in the sky. It's easy to fix in Photoshop with the clone or bandaid tool.

@debra: Hi debra, only recently did I come to know about the clone and the heal tools available in photograph editing softwares like GIMP and Photoshop.. am still learning using GIMP.. but I guess I have already mastered using the clone and the heal tool.. Anyway.. thank you very much for the suggestion and also thank you for patiently checking & analyzing my photographs.

This is a brilliant capture..
There is dust on the CCD, which shows up as spot on your sensor that shows up in the sky. It's easy to fix in Photoshop with the clone or bandaid tool as Debra advised.
But I would day have the CCD cleaned, dust particles more often enter the camera when you switch between lenses.
Dust on the CCD is harmful to the camera. SO take it to the service center and have the CCD cleaned... All the best.

@Ram: Hi Ram, Thank you very much for the suggestion. I currently have learnt using the clone and the heal tools available in GIMP software. Also I used the build-in CCD cleaner to clean-off the dust. I guess you may not see the dust again in my future photographs. :) Thank you once again.
