In the Mountains

We went for a 15 day trip to a place called Munsiari in the Himalayas. It was a 13 hour car journey from the railway station. The place was breathtakingly beautiful. I don't think any photograph can match up to the experience of actually being there.


The road.

The veiw from the top of a ridge.

An ice-capped mountain.

A path we climbed on.

The mountains- An early morning view.

Mist approaching.


We camped out for 2 days. These are our tents.

The sun rising over the top of a mountain.

This is at the level where there are no trees.

Flowers- strange and beautiful

Sparkling Raindrop


I got this picture quite by chance. It had just rained and I set out to get pictures of the drops. Later while I was looking at the photos I noticed this beautiful one hanging at the end of a leaf.

Dancing Lights

I took these pictures in the evening when it was almost dark. I shook the camera while taking them so the lights in the picture made patterns.

The green background is a lawn.

A distant but bright street light along with other tinier lights.

The sweeping motion makes it look like a river of lines.
