A Happy Gentleman from Himalayan State of India || Folks of Himachal Pradesh

Posted by on
This photograph was clicked last year in winters while I was in a small village of Himachal Pradesh. He was probably oldest person of village called Sarahan in Kullu District. He is still very active at this age and regularly visit his agricultural land near his village. Daily he brings wood or grass while coming back home. I loved the smile when I was clicking this photograph. Simplicity of life in Himalayas is unmatchable. People in hills have enough for their livings and they are quite happy with it, which is the key.

Travel & Music || Enchanting Himachal and its Charming Songs

For the past few years, I have taken to Himachali music. I first got introduced to it during my wedding, when a constant background music of women singing Himachali wedding songs, made the simple ceremony even more beautiful. Since then, I have been introduced to several Himachali songs that I have come to love. And this also gives me a great advantage - when I sing these in family gatherings, VJ's side of the family is unfailingly impressed by a non-Himachali knowing so many Himachali songs :-P.

3 Fantastic stories from last 3 months of Pandemic to share how serious Amazon is about it's value 'Customer Obsession'

Usually you see blogposts about Travel, Photography, Gadgets or lifestyle on Travellingcamera, but today we are sharing a very concerning topic about how online shopping with Amazon can be more stressful than going out and shop directly from a store/showroom/shop. It became important for me to share because in last 3 months, Amazon has goofed up big time and because of that me & may family lost peace. I debated in my head about why should I write it? Why someone would worry about my problem and how does it help anyone. I still decided to write to for 2 purposes : Bringing awareness as these are learnings which can help others decide if they want to rely on local vendors for direct shopping instead of online shopping, as no one wants unnecessary stress so may be it's better to think beforehand. Other reason can be that Amazon may learn about how delivery systems in India are screwed and how things can be done in a way that customers don't go through such unnecessary stress.…

Chamera Hydroelectric Project near Dalhousie @ Himachal Pradesh

Chamera Hydroelectric Project is located in Banikhet, 7 kms from Dalhousie. The water body near the lake is very scenic and is a popular boating spot. I was on a day long journey covering Khajjiar, Chamba, and several other 'points' so just skimmed over this part. I did not climb down all the way to the project for boating.
The scene from the top was mesmerizing.

Travel & Music - a brilliant photo for each song, a memorable song for each photo - Part 3

Before human populations began mass migrations, there was still some commonality in the way civilizations developed. All civilizations developed tools and weapons. All societies developed the definition of some socially acceptable behavior - almost all of which involved commitment in relationships. Visual arts emerged everywhere, evidence still exists in the form of cave paintings that can be found almost in all parts of the world. And all cultures developed some form of music and dance. The commonality can be easily understood when it comes to skills required for survival, but when it comes to artistic outlet, most likely it developed out of imagination, than necessity. And this makes it so much more remarkable.
