While traveling from Panna to Bandhavgarh in Madhya Pradesh, I crossed the Bansagar catchment area. This year the rain has been in abundance in India so the catchment area was full of water. It was a beautiful sight to behold. Bridge over Bansagar Catchment Area At the start of the bridge too the scenery was…

The Road Trip- Poipet Siem Reap
I have long given up trying to click pictures from a moving bus. I mean I do click a few when I see beautiful landscape but without much hope. Most of them get blurred. My road trip from Poipet-Siem Reap was an exception. Poipet is on the Thailand-Cambodia border and popular for road crossing. The…
Pushkar Lake, Rajasthan
Pushkar Lake (Rajasthan, India) is a beauty, more so at the sunset. The sunset can be seen from the lake and everything around it becomes even more magical. However, the lake itself could be better maintained. As of now the ghats are dirty. The water too looks green and full of algae. Pushkar Lake is…
Sunset at Fort Kochi, Kerala
In spite of having traveled so much this year it seems I am running out of sky pictures! The good bit is that I am heading out again tomorrow, just me and my daughter. Till I click new ones, here is a sunset at Fort Kochi in Kerala, India. I did a short trip to…
Take off from Bangkok
I have said this many times before and I will say it again, I love window seats on a plane. I love them more if I know I will catch a sunrise or a sunset during my flight. I also usually take a seat from where I know I would get a wing shot from…
Sunrise at Angkor Wat, Siem Reap, Cambodia
After strolling through the Pub Street and the Night Market I managed to hit the bed by mid night. When the alarm went at 4.30 am the next day in spite of being disoriented I did not want to fling the cell phone against the wall. You see, I was going to watch the sunrise…
The Local temple at Ban Dong Krathong Yam
We visited the Ban Dong Krathong Yam Village as part of our media trip with Tourism Authority of Thailand. This village is a Puan village which still keeps its local culture. It is quite off the tourist map. You can take a detour or make a stop here if you are going to the Aranyaprathet…
Blue Skies from Jagatsukh, Himachal Pradesh
I am missing my mountains. The last time I ventured that way was in June (Nepal) but I got too much rain and clouds. So, when I was rummaging through my old pictures of the blue skies from Jagatsukh appealed to my senses instantly. Jagatsukh is just 6 km away from Manali but it is…
Monsoon Skies from Jaisalmer, Rajasthan
As a rule, I am not a big fan of monsoons. There are two reasons for it. One is my commute for work. When it rains the commute becomes hell. The second is trekking. When it rains on a trek, life becomes difficult again. But monsoons are beautiful if you are not trekking or commuting….
Looking Back on the Phewa Lake
Do you ever sit back and think about a trip you did sometime back? Do your feelings about the trip change with the passage of time? When I just got back from Nepal after trying to trek through the Annapurna Circuit Trek, I was tired and not too happy about the amount of rain I…
