Images of Rajasthan

In the last few days, I am slowly working towards compiling an archive of my images and making them available online. I had posted here recently about collection of images from Hampi. The next collection that is now online, is from Rajasthan. Here is the gallery with 64 images from Rajasthan, made during three visits over a span of five years.

Heart of the Himalayas – A Photography Trek + Tour of Lahaul and Spiti

Our next grand tour is to the mountain lands and the Buddhist monasteries of Lahaul and Spiti. I will be leading this tour to see and photograph the most beautiful places you can ever see in the Himalayas and to Buddhist monastic centers that are nearly a millennium old.

Dates: July 14th to 21st, 2012

Introduction

chandratal lake, lahaul and spitiOne of the still unexplored and insanely beautiful stretch of the Indian Himalayas, Lahaul and Spiti is a valley of stark landscapes and high snowy peaks stretching to the sky. Gurgling rivers and crystal clear lakes dot the highlands of Lahaul, while an ancient civilization has survived for nearly thousand years and has preserved its culture against the onslaught of modernity in Spiti. The faraway valley connected only through a narrow road that traverses through mountains over 10,000 feet high, this region offers vistas and heritage that can keep a travel photographer in a click-frenzy for months together.

After having worked for several years to capture beautiful landscapes across the country – from the mountains of Himalayas to deserts of Rajasthan, the rivers across the country to the vast coastline – I am now conducting a workshop on making great landscapes images. The workshop, scheduled for the coming weekend, intends to help participants understand the art of making good landscape images, the technical details, making good images in all kind of weathers, developing an approach and appreciation for the subjects and post processing images with a specific focus on landscape images. Photographers of all expertise levels can benefit from this workshop.
