"Dashboard"

Trishul from Kausani

Friends,

The Himalayas have been a centre of attraction due to their wonderful formation, vastness and snow covered peaks since long. One can have a panoramic view of the Himalayan ranges from Uttarakhand (India). Here is a photograph of Trishul (trident) Peak of Himalayas. This photograph was taken in November 2010 from Kausani, a famous place in Uttarakhand. I, along with my friends, arrived at Kausani just an hour before the sun set. The driver led us to a high point called Anaasakti Ashram, from where we can have the best view of Himalayas. As we reached there, it was a thrilling moment to have a glance of the great Himalayan Peaks, especially “Trishul”. We set our cameras on tripods and waited for the right moment. The setting Sunlight painted the snow covered peaks red and created a charming ambience around us. Without wasting time, I concentrated on “Trishul “and clicked a few shots. This is one of them. This photograph is taken with a Nikon D 90 Camera with a Sigma, 170-500 mm lens. The ISO was set at 200 and the picture was clicked in aperture priority mode (at f 16).
