Texture on the wall at Gangtey Gonpa, Bhutan
There is this imposing wall to the right on way to Gangtey Gonpa in Phobjikha Valley in Bhutan.  The wall is obviously quite old.  Time and weather seemed to have played magic and created a wonderful textural effect. 

The range of emotions these textures aroused were as varied as the patterns created - beauty, awe, complexity, mystery, melancholy, seeking answers and what not...It was a great experience to shoot these. The light was fading fast so there was not much time available.

Chinese Shoe Shop at Shimla

Chinese Shoe Shop at Shimla Every hill station in north India seems to have The Mall Road and in every likelihood there will be a Chinese shoe shop. When I noticed this shop on The Mall at Shimla , could not resist peeping in. It did not look to be a very active shop, neither the owner seemed very friendly. (Shimla, 2011)

Rope mallakhamb at Ujjain - 1 The girls on the rope mallakhamb could handle challenging postures with ease and were no less than the boys. Both the boys and girls have been bringing glory to their academy for several years now. ( Ujjain , 2017 )

Goan house

Goan house Noticed this pretty house somewhere on the outskirts of Goa while driving. It was so charming that I had to stop by and take pictures. Climbed the steps to check in from close quarters but the closer view was not all that charming. Despite that, the impression of this house remains etched in my mind.
