My pictures with their little stories

Menu card at Jalori Pass, Himachal Tea and paratha (prantha to use phonetically correct spelling as the word is pronounced) dominated the graffiti on all possible areas where something could be written at this place at Jalori Pass in  Himachal . We did not go in here, we went into another shop where the fellow was making fresh mithai. (Jalori Pass, Himachal, 2014)

The Bougainvillea Collection - 3 While shooting the  Bougainvillea , I realised that while it looked bright and vibrant, one would make a mistake to miss out some very subtle tones in it.  It is similar to the search for the subtle and unspoken beauty as opposed to loud assertion of beauty which we get bombarded with all the time.  (April 2016)

The Bougainvillea Collection - 1  Although I usually do not enjoy shooting flowers, the bougainvillea at Indiaart Gallery has been so inviting that I could not resist picking up the camera. In this picture, the dried leaves of a fallen branch of the bamboo tree from the adjoining piece of land has created a wonderful backdrop for the colour and beauty of bougainvillea. (April 2016)

The Bougainvillea Collection - 2 by Milind Sathe The bougainvillea at Indiaart Gallery at its new location is simply beautiful. Looks like I am going to land up creating The Bougainvillea Collection. Here is the first one. (2016)

Baspa valley near Raksham I am sure that had  Robert Wise  walked this trail in the  Baspa valley  near Raksham, he would have filmed " The Sound of Music " right here. The fall was setting in and it made the entire experience even more enchanting - Jannat almost. (Raksham, 2014)

Colourful Raksham The entire area around village Raksham is so colourful and with fall starting to set in, the colours started to get more pronounced. The walk through the village led us to some very colourful sights with each house starting to stock up grass for the winter. This particular visual had so many layers and colours in it but they all seemed so neatly arranged by who else ? (Raksham,  Sangla valley ,  Dist Kinnaur ,  Himachal , 2014)
