Skywatch Friday- Sunrise Over Uttarakhand Himalayas

Posted on June 10, 2011
Sunrise Over Uttarakhand Himalayas
Sunrise Over Uttarakhand Himalayas

This was the sunrise at our campsite called Dhunda in Uttarakhand. In the city I can hardly ever drag myself before 7.00 am out of the bed. In the mountains I was up at the crack of the dawn almost everyday waiting for the magic to happen in the skies!

Please visit the Skywatch page for more skies from around the world.
