Love

They say,all say Love is for all season.Enjoy to love and be loved.See how we found love in the hills of Muktheswar.

As we went higher and higher in the Kumaon region,we were excited.Near by our  hotel where we stayed,as went on an evening walk,we saw a board saying "Madhuban".Come and enjoy the sunsets,enjoy the herbal tea said the board.A man ,the owner  himself was standing and invited us.He took us high up in his hills,his farms,showed us the peach and pear blossoms,his potato plant and herbs ,which were dried and sold as herbal tea powder.Even we ordered for our herbal tea and herbal pakoras.As we went higher and then  we found love,we found the love of light ,the evening light,the light love of the  breeze and the love of mountains and the true love..yes,they were miracles in our life..

Life is made of miracles..the poignant moments of joy,from simple everyday lifes. Miracles happen everyday..they can be higher up in the mountains to valleys to the plains and all across the world.
Live your life and love your life!

“There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle.” 

― Albert Einstein

Evenings at Pushkar

It looks like it was yesterday,that we were in Pushkar.

Rememberance of the cold evenings out there ,the rythmic beating of the drums as the sun sets ..

The soothing folklore from the ektaras.

The golden glow on the white washed ghats.

 People seated on the steps,waiting patiently for the Sun God to set.

Numerous frames and views captured

An evening in Ponmudi

 A Heavenly hill station and some treasured memories.A journey made during the last monsoons,last year when we went to the South.There were a treasure trove of images after the trip and till date couldn't finalise which ones were the better among  them.
Ponmudi,actually being near to our home,there isn't any need for a days stay there,but we stayed there to see the early sunrise.It was monsoon time and we generally couldn't guess the weather changing rapidly there from rainy into cloudy.. We stayed at "Golden Peak" the only hotel in the lower sanatorium.Theres an upper sanatorium also,where the hills drop down into valleys at all sides and the view is just amazing if there isnt much clouds.I am much of a nature lover ,but trying my hand at nature photography was for the first time.I hope the images will weave the story for my readers..

winding paths and the hairpin bends

dieties on the road

  

roadside prayers 

interesting small temples

almost reached the lower sanatorium

Hotel Golden Peak 

Small huts on the hill

a quick trip to the upper sanatorium

the view on the way

a lonely tree

rolling clouds,making their way for rain

way too windy,my little one and my dupatta

  

connectivity and hills

the light,my world filling light,in awe

i saw the rainbow and jumped in sheer joy

mists gathering on to the hotel side

rolling mists getting covered outside the room

  

 the most beautiful and the most wonderful view  

There were so many wonderful things that caught my eyes today.All things that i loved came down on earth a day for me.It happened as though I had a secret desire and the wish came true ..was it because i passionately wished for it..You all have a good nights sleep till i tell you what happened the next day...
