Carnival of Stones and Rocks




Nikon D3000
Focal length 18 mm
1/50s F7.1 ISO100


Clicked this image during my bike trip to Chitkul, HP, India. Its an amazing place sowcasing the natures' bounty in best of its form. The splendid scene throws you a vividly open carnival of rocks with amazing snow-capped mountains in back drop and wild mountain trees adding beauty to the scene. Since it was evening time when we reached this place the sky colors are also dramatic and adding to the  splendor of this marvelous place.

In the service of Lord



Nikon D3000
Focal length 22 mm
1/125s F10.0 ISO100


To shoot in freshly falling snow itself is a great motivator. But if you have this event happening at a divine place like Tungnath then there can be nothing more sublime for a travel photographer. Tungnath temple is the highest hindu shrine in the world and carries a charisma of its own. It is part of panch kedar (five kedar temples) in the Himalayan ranges and carries great sanctity.

Divine lights shot in Uttarakhand




Nikon D3000
Focal length 55 mm
1/125s F10.0 ISO100

I have always been amazed and inspired by seeing photographs like these being clicked by other photographers. In my recent bike trip to tungnath i got lucky enough  to see and click such a divine natures aura near devprayag. Felt really really lucky that the scenic opportunity stayed for some time.
Hope you guys enjoy the picture.

A Smile With Pride


Nikon D3000
Focal length 30 mm
1/50s F5.0 ISO100

Recently visited Osian a small town located at some 65 kms from the city of Jodhpur and comes under Jodhpur district only. Nice cloudy weather gave me the opportunity of pleasantly walking through the streets of this town and interacting with locals. This pic cites one of those instances only. The old man in this pic gladly illustrated to me the history of the town and their culture. He had such impeccable serenity and calm prevailing on his face and body language that I had to ask him for a photograph and luckily for me he did not mind that either. :))

Life is a journey


Nikon D3000
F5.6 1/80 sec ISO 100



It was a beautiful morning and i was there at the ghats of Banaras to shoot the sun rise. The level of Ganges was well above the normal and walking along the Ghats wasn't really a way one would opt for. But this saint continued his way despite everything, unaffected by what people were thinking about him. Only thing that came to my mind at that time was "Life is a journey" and one needs to keep on moving.

Book of Life


Nikon D3000
1/400 s
Focal length 55.0 mm
f/5.6
ISO 100

I am in love with this pic. Primarily because I have never thought of a caption better than I had thought for this pic :) Here it goes below
I read through the pages of life trying to learn about it , never knowing that I would end up into a book myself.

And secondarily because it is one of the most powerful portrait shots that i have got.
Hope every one likes it.

Absolut



Nikon D3000
Focal Lengh 45 mm
f/7.1
ISO 200

Love this pic for its color and texture and the soft blur background. It was a simple experiment at home with an empty Absolut bottle.
