Taurus in the middle of nowhere
Captain Suresh Sharma's Taurus is an amazing beast. It anchors in some of the remotest & most photogenic outdoor locations & gives opportunities to shoot some spectacular landscapes.
We camped for two days on a flat table land ensconced amidst the mighty snow capped Himalayas & the Spiti river for two days at this location. The scathing winds would make the sub freezing temperatures a bit more challenging to be out late shooting but a hot mug of "Chaai" & snacks served by Captain, did make the ordeal that much easier. Thanks to our accustomed routine comforts of life, sleeping in the tents above Taurus roof can be a test initially but then the adrenaline throbbing through your veins takes over.
The Milky Way visible easily in these dark sky regions looms overhead early at twilight & ebbs around 2200 hours in October but the real show begins once the moon rises & bathes the snow-capped mountains in pearly white. There is a stillness in the night that your city cacaphony deafened ears yearn for. The rugged Himalayas which look menacing during the day, turn angelic in the ivory white robes. The sky sprinkled with a billion or more of stars, glowing many a million light-years away, makes you remove your gloves for your seemingly frost bitten fingers to press the shutter one more time.
Time stops here.
Thank you Capt Suresh Sharma & Taurus for everything.
