We are now in Cusco, Peru. While we had thought this city would only be a stopover on our way to Machu Picchu, every night we realise we need to stay another night. Though engulfed in tourism, it has a lot of

character, lots to see, observe and take in. This was the post sunset view from the bar in Cusco's bohemian neighbourhood San Blas.

We got to Bariloche from the awe inspiring, stark cold landscapes of deep Patagonia. Though the weather was cold here as well, the trees, picturesque cosy houses and the colours felt warm and welcoming.

The Leh Manali journey has epic written all over it. With roads that open up for only a few months a year, these 470 km will test you, scare you, shock you and leave you spellbound. This is the view from Nakee la, the third mountain pass on this highway.

Late in the evening, as the Makar Sankranti sun sets, the

night festivities begin. People release paper lamps from their terraces. The sky is now filled with floating lights. Our necks ache as we try to take in the spectacle around. It is a surreal moment.

This is the view of the Taj Mahal from the top of the nature trail on the East side. The sun was playing hide-and-seek with the clouds and we were trying to get that perfect time when the clouds would move revealing a golden light.

 

Suddenly, the light drizzle turned into a heavy lashing. A gazebo on the trail protected us and the camera and we took some rain soaked shots.

This is one of the fourteen churches around the centre of Cusco. All the colonial structures being built over the older Incan structures is a common theme here. Nonetheless, the buildings are all quite impressive to look at.

A big market sets up in a tiny village called Tarabuco, a couple of hours from Sucre. Locals from the surrounding villages and towns come here for their supply of groceries and other household items; sometime even to trade animals. For the tourists, the main draw is the cloth market which gives a chance to buy the colourful Bolivian textiles directly from the artisans.

Tso Moriri, at a distance of 250km from Leh is a high mountain lake at a height of around 4500m.

 

We were walking towards Tso Moriri and I saw the concentrated natural light at one place. My friend was standing right in the centre of the light and the sun was about to set. Warm light, long shadows, beautiful Tso Moriri lake in the background created the right moment to take this shot. All I did, was align myself (my shadow) to create a magnificent levitating effect to figure in the centre.

 

Deutsch

Tso Moriri, 250 Kilometer entfernt von Leh, ist ein Hochgebirgssee auf einer Höhe von 4500 Metern. Als wir dem Tsomoriri entgegen wanderten, sah ich einen Lichtstrahl an dieser Stelle. Mein Freund stellte sich in die Mitte des Lichtes und die Sonne ging gerade unter. Warmes Licht, die langen Schatten und der wunderschöne Tsomoriri-See im Hintergrund machten den Moment perfekt, dieses Foto zu schießen. Alles was ich noch tat, war mich auszurichten (meinen Schatten), um einen herrlichen "Schwebe-Effekt" für die Figur in der Bildmitte zu erzeugen.

 

Español

Tso Moriri, a una distancia de 250 kilómetros desde Leh, es un lago de alta montaña situado a una altura de unos 4.500 metros. Caminamos hacia Tso Moriri y vi la luz natural concentrada en un lugar. Mi amigo posa justo en el centro de la luz mientras el sol estaba a punto de ponerse. Luz calentita, sombras largas y el precioso lago Tso Moriri como telón de fondo, creando el momento adecuado para sacar la foto. Todo lo que hice fue unirme yo mismo (mi sombra) para crear un magnífico efecto de levitación en el centro.

 

Français

Tso Moriri, à une distance de 250 km de Leh, est un lac de haute montagne à une hauteur d'environ 4500 mètres. Nous marchions vers Tso Moriri et j'ai vu la lumière naturelle se concentrer en un seul endroit. Mon ami se tenait au milieu de cette lumière et le soleil était sur ​​le point de s'installer. Une lumière chaude, de longues ombres, le magnifique lac de Tso Moriri en arrière-plan, ont participé à créer le bon moment pour prendre ce cliché.

 

Italiano

Tso Moriri, a 250 chilometri di distanza da Leh, è un lago montano che si trova a circa 450 metri d'altezza. Stavamo camminando in direzione di Tso Moriri, quando ho visto la luce concentrarsi in un unico punto. Il mio amico era in piedi al centro della luce e il sole stava per tramontare. La luce calda, le ombre lunghe e lo splendido lago Tso Moriri sullo sfondo creavano un'atmosfera magica per scattare una foto. Tutto ciò che ho fatto è stato allineare la mia ombra per dare un fantastico effetto levitante alla figura al centro.

摄影师Chetan Karkhanis说:我们当时正朝着莫里里湖(Tso Moriri)走去,然后我看到一处自然光线聚集的地方。我的朋友刚好站在光线中央,此时太阳即将落山。温暖的阳光、长长的影子,以及背景中美丽的莫里里湖,一切都被捕捉到了这个镜头之中。

Nagarhole National Park is a tiger reserve in Coorg, Karnataka, a state in south India. We didn't see the tiger but did see the Indian bison, wild hogs, mongoose and the famous Malabar giant squirrel. Sighting or not, it's a highly recommended experience. The early morning air, the smells and sounds of the forest - it's

overwhelming being there witnessing it all!

This is a mosque in the Sarkhej area of Ahmedabad., once famously referred to as the Acropolis of the East. Built in the 15th century, it is yet another piece of the architectural splendours of the city. The water of the artificial reservoir was all dried up when we visited, making it a perfect ground for the local kids to play a game of cricket. Originally a sultan's retreat, even today people come here for a moment of quiet and peace right in the middle of the bustling ahmedabad.View more photos from Ahmedabad.

People of Jaipura, Rajasthan, India "You want my photo? To put it on the internet?" He asked us as we were strolling around chasing the golden light on that cold winter morning.

We asked him what internet was. To which he replied, "Come, see my buffaloes". He then went on to introduce Chetan to all his goats and buffaloes. Needless to say, a photo session followed.

Once the initial apprehension of why we wanted to click their photos went off, he became a gracious, welcoming host. Happy to pose with his buffaloes and grand children (whom he loved equally, we suspect!). "Next time, stay with us", were his parting words.

We were told that people in Kashmir hardly fell ill -

one doesn't really have health issues in such pure air, water and land! Besides, they knew their trees well, and were well versed in how to put them to medical use. This impenetrable health makes a walk of hours with a heavy load on the back seem like a stroll in the park!

Zanskar is probably the most isolated valley in India and Phuktal is the remotest part of Zanskar. The Phuktal monastery is the epitome of monks living high up in the mountains, detached from the rest of the world. All of this made the trek to the Phuktal monastery an exciting adventure.

Possibly the most populous UNESCO World Heritage structure, it is a part of

daily life for millions of commuters. If you want to know what a “block of people” means, try entering the station at 9 AM on a weekday, when people are rushing to their offices. A great place to observe people of all kinds, seeing the sea of mankind emerge out of the station at rush hours is an interesting experience in itself.

From a distance, it looks like the area around the Dudhsagar waterfalls is covered in clouds. It is actually just the spray from the waterfalls, its momentum so strong, it actually crosses over to the other side of the railway tracks.

Zojila, the pass that connects Srinagar to Ladakh. It starts right after Baltal and runs for around 13km. It remains closed for almost half the year, in the winter months, when it is covered in snow. Understandably, the roads are in a battered condition when it opens up.

 

Ladakh is the most biked to region in India, and bikers in seen in large numbers treading this treacherous pass.
