I had to go to a town called Hamirpur for a day on work on Thursday.I came back home yesterday.It was a hectic trip as Hamirpur is a five hours drive through pretty bad mountain roads from Shimla.However at this time of the year the countryside is beautiful because of the mustard fields and I got one or two nice shots on the way.I got this shot of three ladies near a small place called Brahmpukhar somewhere midway between Shimla and Hamirpur.

The ladies of Himachal are fond of bright colours and often while working in the fields they tie their dupatta (piece of long cloth which is usually draped over the upper portion of the body) around their heads.

Have a wonderful weekend everyone!!

I'm very happy being me, although sometimes I'd love to be a bird so that I could fly rising and falling with the still spaces in the air, far above all this sickness and death and evil.

In India chilli is grown in almost all states, in an area of 774.9 thousand hectare with a production of about 1492.10 thousand tonnes .
