After a hard day's work
We met this fellow late afternoon near Chitkul in Kinnaur, Himachal. He was on his way back after a long hard day of work and was carrying a heavy sack. Not very articulate and not very keen to talk, his persona reflected the quintessential hill folk - rustic, hardy, simple, god fearing and content with life.
Village Chitkul which is the last village on the Indian side (the mountain ranges would lead into Tibet) can be seen in the background, whereas river Baspa is to the left. I shot this picture in early October when the colours start changing from green to yellow to red and the skies are clear.

Texture on the wall at Gangtey Gonpa, Bhutan There is this imposing wall to the right on way to Gangtey Gonpa in Phobjikha Valley in Bhutan . The wall is obviously quite old. Time and weather seemed to have played magic and created a wonderful textural effect. The range of emotions these textures aroused were as varied as the patterns created - beauty, awe, complexity, mystery, melancholy, seeking answers and what not...It was a great experience to shoot these. The light was fading fast so there was not much time available.
