I took this photo from ''Chilianaula'' near Ranikhet . Elevation 1898 m., a hill station in Uttarakhand State, northern India. It’s known for its views of the Himalayas. Hundreds of bells adorn Jhula Devi Temple, dedicated to the Hindu goddess Durga. Fruit trees grow on the terraced orchards of Chaubatia Gardens, with views of peaks including Nanda Devi. Mahatma Gandhi stayed in a hut, Gandhi Kuti, in nearby Tarikhet village during the independence struggle.

Photo taken with Minolta X-300, obj zoom 35-70 mm

A view of the snow-covered Himalayas from Kufri ,some 20 kms from Shimla.It is only during the months of December-January that we get such clear views of the snow-covered ranges from Shimla.

Walking on for three days...still quite a long way to trek....I could see smiling faces of Trisuli and Hardeol peaks inviting me to come closer...

Met a lone cyclist at the Himalayan mountain Nepal.

The ascent was steady through virgin highland having numerous wild plants and flowers.....they make the air intoxicating and pause for a longer time affects and generates drowsiness....so enjoy the beauty only with steady walk...

A view of the snow-clad Himalayas from Fagu,some 30 kms from Shimla.Our favourite picnic spot was somewhere here.On weekends we would sometimes pack a few sandwiches and take a flask of tea ,drive to this place on our Enfield Bullet and sit and enjoy our picnic while enjoying this breathtaking view.I always thank God for those amazing three years Sanjay and I spent in Shimla.How I miss them now in hot and humid Kolkata.:-)

Aerial view of the green vegetation covered great Himalayas from the plane. Visible are the treacherous roads and the floating cumulus clouds.
