Mussoorie - I

Posting some interesting pictures from the recent Mussoorie trip...

I was quite surprised when this picture came out. Had a very small object to focus on and was expecting it to be out of focus but as it turns out the chimes were in focus and the background blurred...




As someone pointed out, couple of flaws in this picture, top of the head is cut and her eyes are closed. But I was quite happy with this, the conditions were tough, it was in low light and she was stirring her wok and was continuously moving...




My favorite, it has a dog and a mountain :) Bright sunlight and a very relaxed dog made taking this shot fairly easy.



You really can't capture, in a photograph, the beauty of hundreds of these flags with Buddhist inscriptions fluttering in the wind on top of a mountain. Plus being at the foothills of the Himalayas made this hill-top even more special. I can never forget the sight and the sound of these flags...
