Grandeur of Punakha

The first impression at Punakha Dzong is that of the grandeur

and the sheer scale of everything here.

What sinks in is the relative insignificance of the humans due to the size, scale and proportion of the structures around.

Second oldest and second largest dzong in Bhutan, it was earlier the winter capital of Bhutan, now the winter capital only of monastic body.

Fishing on the Dal lake

Read the blog post : Life on the Dal lake

Cycling on Mandalay Line Mandalay line in Range Hills at Khadki is one of my favourite areas for cycling. It is quiet with little traffic. It passes via what used to be the Bomb Disposal Squad campus. Their unit shifted sometime ago. Last week when I was cycling on this stretch, noticed this bylane with brilliant colours of Bougainvillea and Gulmohar . The presence of a red car and a black dog who kind of posed for this picture, added the drama. (Pune, June 2022)

Changing colours of the leaves from the morning walk

Pictures from the morning walk today As the winter recedes, one can see several changes around. The leaves start changing their colours and ultimately they take a bow. There is this tree near our place which throws up spectacular transition of colours around this time each year. Happened to pick up some nice pictures today morning. (shot on Fujifilm X100V)
