The Mighty Brahmaputra
We crossed the Brahmaputra twice on our trip to Assam recently but unfortunately both times the sun was very high in the sky.The second time Idecided to go ahead with this shot.The river is so broad here(approx 3.3 kms) I found it impossible to capture it in full.
The River Brahmaputra originates in the Angsi Glacier in the northern side of the Himalayas in Tibet and flows through Tibet,India and Bangladesh.It is 2900 kms long.It is the 29th longest river in the world and the 10th largest in terms of drainage area.In Bangladesh it flows into the Padma River (as the Ganges is known there).Unlike most Indian rivers with female names the Brahmaputra has a male name meaning-the son of Lord Brahma.
