On a recent trip (December 2017) to the Kumaon Himalayas, the air was crisp and cold thus giving perfect light for some really stunning views of the mountain ranges. These eye soothing photographs are from Binsar, Almora and Bhimtal. The drive was absolutely fantastic and most enjoyable with perfect road conditions. Traffic was sparse and driving a pleasure on the beautiful roads. I recommend a trip for anyone who is interested in paying homage to the mighty Himalayas.

Just minutes later walking through the jungle !
The next morning the Himalayas beckoned me to venture out of bed at 5.40 am to view the sunrise and I could not believe how majestic they are. It was freezing cold but worth it. Take a peek !
I must say the TRH management was spot on when they served Tea and Coffee to all of us on the deck at that time.
I envy the permanent residents of the Binsar National Park
I hope you have enjoyed the photos as much I did photographing them. Thanks for visiting this photo blog.
