Manali- Leh highway
One from the archives.
The approx.490 kms long Manali-Leh highway connects Manali in the state of Himachal Pradesh to Leh in the state of Jammu & Kashmir in India.This highway is open for only about 4-5 months of the year from May-June till around mid-October.The average elevation of the highway is over 13000 feet and the highest elevation is at Tanglang la Pass (17480 feet).The highway passes through some spectacular mountain scenery and one can see some amazing rock and sand formations along the way.
We must have been over 13000 feet here and I was finding it diificult to function but the road being so spectacular I did manage a few shots.
The weather being unbearably hot with day temperatures soaring to 40 degrees C I have not been able to indulge in any photography recently.This is an old one and I might have uploaded it earlier but I wanted to share it with those friends who have joined me in the last few years.
