Other Side of the Pin-Hole

Early morning sun, through a cluster of leaves

Sunrise in Kumaon

around 5:45 a.m.. i come out of my room at Munsyari and i see this.... This is Kumaon range, bathed in the first rays... the five peaks seen at the left are called Panchachuli... Its believed that Yudhistira (of Mahabharata) went to heaven from the highest peak of the Panchachuli range...

Spring comes to St.Louis

It's as if there's still winter... these trees had blossomed with only white blooms... so white, still reminescent of the snow... in a few days, all the blooms just blew away, leaving behind stark nudity.....

The last time I was at St.Louis, it was all white everywhere, all the time... but this visit was different... I got a bevy of colours.. a visual feast which started with white first, then unfolded with innumerable servings.....

Even the fields were in bloom............
Just outside the hotel, I captured the "cluster" .... purple in all levels of contrast....

And there are still more..... :)..
