Ladakh - the place that'll blow your mind

2012's June was a month of fulfilling one of my dearest dreams, dream of experiencing Ladakh. Travel-freak people are not certainly waiting for my post to have idea about this place. Well, in short, it is the cynosure of Himalayan culture and beauty. It is an ultimate place of high passes and adventure. And, of course, Ladakh is the heaven for photographers. Sharing some of my clicks with you. Hope you like it! Please do not forget to share your suggestions on pictures.

Here you can see some glimpses of Ladakh landscapes, it's people and it's rich culture.

People of Ladakh are truly awesome. They are so friendly, so humble that you would feel at home with them. Greet them with "Zulley" and be certain to get a sweet smile back :)










Ladakh is famous for Hemis festival. Tourists from all around the world gather at this time just to witness this Himalayan cultural grandeur. Sharing some of the snaps of The Hemis.








Make a proper plan, pack your bag and do visit Ladakh. It's one of the most amazing places on earth. Fly to Ladakh, go by road or take Enfield, but please do not miss it. I have been to Ladakh once, in love with this place and wish to experience it again.

My First Post!

This is the 18th day of 2012's August. And I can't believe that I am doing this! And actually have been seriously asked by someone to do this! This is my 1st blog, and I won't lie either that I am not excited. I never thought that I could think out of the box, i.e. out of 'facebook' and would think of posting pictures in a blog, like professionals do. But I ain't a professional photographer. I click almost anything. And I like it. That's it. However...

It was raining in the morning. I had nothing special to do but enjoy the beauty of rain. Unlawfully, then, I dared to captivate some fleeting moments. Sharing some of my guilt/sin with you.


















 I cannot write well. I can only think, and observe, and at times, I try to express them with pictures.
