Of long lost trails & mystic ways...



















It was long on the cards and finally I managed to squeeze some time of my not so busy schedule to do a photographic tour of the Mystic Himalayas.

Decided upon Binsar considering it has good options to trek around from, good views of the snowcapped Himalayas and I had never been to Binsar, thus it was locked and loaded. Got myself booked at the FRH Binsar, a British era building with squeaky wooden floors and only solar energy for power.

Stayed there for five days and each day the sunrise and sunset were different, not all of them favoring photography but i guess it is part of the deal. If i had to put my experience  in one word and several images (my preferred language to communicate) it would be "Magic".

I have tried to capture the same 'Magic' in these images...

Moon

I always look fwd to the five days in a month when Moon is in all of its pristine glory. This time around I was lucky to get some clouds creating depth and drama in the images. The fun part was that I had to constantly check my exposure as the clouds were moving very fast, constantly changing the desired exposure. And yes it was cold!! On the actual full Moon night there was not even a speck of cloud around. Better luck next time!! Some  images from that cold cold night...

Corporate Portraits

Did these corporate portraits some time back. The brief was to deliver very simple and clean B&W portraits of the employees. We decided upon a basic three light setup and the result was pretty decent although the client was more than happy. Moral of the story: Sometimes the clients requirement is more important than your own creative vision and satisfaction.
