Motorboats waiting for Passengers at Govind Sagar Lake in Una Region of Himachal Pradesh, India

Here is a Photograph from my recent visit to Himachal during Holi vacations. While going to Hamirpur from Delhi, this lake comes on the way near Una and known as Govind Sagar Lake which is a part of Satluj River. This lake was created during initiation of Bhakhra Hydro Project. Although this lake has snatched land of many folks around the place, but at the same time they have got new opportunities to earn their livings. More photographs of Govind Sagar Lake can be checked - HERE

Above photograph shows a very small portion of this lake. Govind Sagar is a huge lake spread in two districts of Himachal Pradesh covering hundreds of kilometers.

Another Photograph published in Times of India (Himachal Edition - 10th March, 2012)

Shining Star on top of Pong Dam Lake near Nagrota in Kangra District of Himachal Pradesh, India || A Fish Eye Photograph

Here is a photograph shot with a Fish Eye which gives wider view to a place as compared to standard lenses. Although distortion of this photograph have been fixed and we needed to crop the original photograph which has obviously reduced some view from all four directions. Fish eye lens clicks a photograph which looks spherical. Anyways, This is Pong Dam which is one of the popular destination of Migratory Birds in Himachal Pradesh.

Boy having holy bath at Golden Temple, Amritsar (Punjab State of India) || Beginning of New Year 2012

This photograph is clicked on 1st Jan, 2012. This Boy was having holy bath at Golden Temple on a chilling morning with mist all around. 

There were lot of folks from various parts of Punjab and surrounding states at Golden Temple. I have been to this place many times, but this time it was too much crowded and there was hardly some space to freely move around. Everyone wanted to start the New Year with God's blessing.

Monsoon Freshness dipping down !!!

Monsoon season brings back all the freshness in whole environment, with green plants all around and wonderful fragrance of colorful flowers. With this it also bring good opportunities for photographers to play with rain-drop, clouds and colorful plants all around. Although Monsoons are not good for many regions in our country, but at the same place important for most of the states in India, who are dependent on Agriculture. 

This Photograph was clicked three years back during Monsoons at Mandi, Himachal Pradesh, INDIA !!!

Mobilegiri - Lady from hills, busy in usual morning things with her kids !!!

While travelling from Kullu Srahan to Shimla, this photographs was clicked from moving car. It's a click by HTC Desire HD and somehow it came out quite clear. Folks in the car were wondering, how she can do this to his kid :) ... Weather out there was chilling. Although she is wearing a half sweater, but temperature was below 10 degrees. This place was surrounded by snow capped hills and this kid is taking bath in open. Probably this is not a big deal for them, but this photograph still make me shiver in summers as well. See kid expressions and his hands.

President's House and surrounding areas like Parliament house, Secretariate and India Gate comes under high security zones in Delhi !!! Most of the times we see India Army forces appointed around these areas and I am happy about this fact. Somehow Indians are not unnecessarily scared of Army people and these security folks would rarely talk rudely to anybody. While if we consider Policemen, most of the times people don't even like to talk to them because they can ask you to pay for that conversion :) ... If you haven't experienced this as of now, I would say 'You are lucky' !!!
