pic 1 : Nanda Devi mountain illuminated by the last rays of the day. I was fortunate enough to shoot this picture since the light faded off in a few minutes
pic2 : group of goats being led by the shepherds and the Bhotia dogs to the next grazing spot .
pic3: picturesque Urgam village and the Urgam valley
pic4 : saint 'Mauni Maharaj' of Kalpeshwar. The learned saint who lectured me an an hour disclosed that he observed silence for 3 years. His face radiate with a spiritual glow blessed by the long years of meditation.
pic5 : Kalpeshwar temple - the fifth Kedar symbolising the matted hair of Shiva. The temple is open throughout the year. This place was much preferred by the ancient Himalayan sages for meditation. Durvasa meditated under a Kalpvriksh here.
