Two images made at Binsar zero point. The pink tinge over the horizon happens at sunset. From Binsar zero point the span of Himalayan range visible is about 300kms.

Moods of Kumaon Himalayas - 1
I made a series of images of the eastern himalayan range from pangot and binayak. These are small villages away from Nainital by a distance of around 20kms. The first time you look at a himalayan range it hits you captivating you by its sheer scale and size. Though you make innumerable images you still come back with a feeling full justice has not been done in showcasing this wonder of nature. Nevertheless here is my attempt. A view of the kumaon eastern himalayan range from pangot. The highlighted range in the center is trisul flanked on the left side by Shivling and on the right by Nandadevi.

Nanda Devi in Mist
Back from a one week trip to eastern side of himalayas touching places like pangot, binsar and sattal. I had planned this primarily as a birding trip to pangot and sattal but on arrival at pangot the birding lens broke down. The north east birds are a beautiful set and it was disappointing the birding setup broke down. Though by the end of the trip the birding setup became ok by that time though my mood had totally switched to primarily doing landscapes. Here is a curtain raiser shot of Nanda devi which is part of eastern himalayan range in mist during evening sunset.
