Fantastic Friday

I captured these pictures on my way back from Manly Beach in Sydney. The sun had already started drowning and there was a bird sitting on the top of the pole and a boat sailing in the middle of the sea. That was a perfect scenario . And ofcourse I tried my best to fit all of them in my small n95. It was hard as in the pole was too close to me and the boat too far. But my n95 did it ... Hurray I simply love my gadget !!!!

A perfect evening at the sea.

Beautiful Beach Sunset

So I had been to Watson Bay in Sydney with few of my friends.That was my first and indeed an exciting experience on the ferry.It felt as if i was flying with the breeze as the ferry started to sail.We reached the Watson Bay and wandered around. It was all beautiful and by the end of the day a little exhausted we sat by the shore and captured the beautiful sunset on my now getting older n95 mobile.

A magnificent sunset at the Watson Bay.A man walking on the beach thinking of may be something wonderful.

Even the birds were enjoying this fantabulous view

So its all over for the day.The sun is hiding with a promise to get back with another marvelous day. Goodbye !! Beautiful Today !

My n95 is getting older Help me get a new one and continue my work.Thank you

The serenity in the Park

Well finally I am back. Sorry all my viewers for posting after quite a while. Actually I have been in Sydney , Australia since a couple of weeks and have been unable to post . As now I have settled down here I am back to my blog which I missed like hell .
Here are the pictures I captured in Sydney. I was pretty tired walking around the Hyde Park and was sitting on the bench .The roads looked so calm and the atmosphere was so fresh that I felt like sleep over there and never wake up.It looked stunning.

Does not that look fresh and serene ?

Two Beautiful Lake

I have been posting several pictures of my hometown Pokhara.Here again I am posting few pictures of very popular lakes Fewa lake and Begnas lake around my hometown and Nepal.
Here are the pictures of Fewa Lake taken form my n95 . Fewa lake is the second largest lake of Nepal lying at an altitude of 784 m (2,572 ft) located in Pokhara.It covers an area of about 4.43 km2 (1.7 sq mi) and is about 8.6 m (28 ft) deep.Phewa lake is famous for the reflection of Mount Machapuchare on its surface and the holy Barahi Mandir (Temple) is situated in the middle of this lake.

Here are the pictures of the Begnas Tal (lake). About 10 km southeast of Pokhara lies the Begnas Tal.It's a serene lake where the mountains of the Annapurna Range are brilliantly reflected. There is a Restaurant right on the top from where you can have the complete view of the lake.I love going to this place during the weekends and holidays and enjoy my day with few bottles of chilled beer and delicious fish fry .

If you feel energetic, you can rent boats and paddle for really cheap.

With each sunrise, we start a new

I wish all my readers and friends and guests a Merry Christmas and a Very Happy New Year 2009.If you wish and like my pictures you can send it as Christmas cards or holiday cards to your friends and relatives.

Few weeks back I had to get up early each morning as I had my driving classes going on.Everyday I could watch the lovely sunrise.Out of the Grey the sun making its grand entry smearing this world in gold and pink .The enchanting beauty in the sunrise installs in me so much of hope and enthusiasm.It gives me a new day and a new vision, a new faith and a determination for a perfect new start.Nothing could be more beautiful than the loveliness of the sky before sunrise.

The sky full of clouds quite grey unless the sunshine hit on them.

It looks like the god has painted everything in gold.

the pinkish golden sky looks stunning.

While surfing I found this beautiful poem which describes my thoughts.I am not a poet nor a writer but this is how i exactly feel about sunrise.I wish i too was a poet.Anyways enjoy this poem by

Jacqui Thornton

The grey begins to fade,
As color creeps from leaf to limb.
The light is slowly seeping up,
From beneath the earth's curved rim.
The sky blue strengthens slowly,
Glazed with hues of orange and red.
Slowly as the earth revolves,
The sun lifts up it's head.
Colors shimmer in the light
And shapes begin to unveil.
The trees and flowers separate,
With the dawn light rosy and pale.
The sun climbs higher in the sky.
It's light shimmering and warm.
All things now are clearly seen.
A new day has been born.

The majestic view of Annapurna mountain range and the Machapuchare " Fishtail "

Pokhara valley is dominated by the Himalayan panorama which are seen at their best mirroring on the surface of the Fewa Lake.They are just about 50 km away.The Annapurna range is a 55 km long massif series of peaks of which Annapurna-I the world's 10th-highest summit stands at 8,091 meters.
The most beautiful Machhapuchhre( Fishtail) is the mountain (6993 meters) in Annapurna range.It has a double summit that resembles the tail of a fish, hence it is called "FishTail." It is also nicknamed the "Matterhorn of Nepal".Fishtail is famous for its “purity” as no man has ever climbed it. It is forbidden to climb as it is revered by the local people as sacred to god.I took these pictures in the month of October and November,the best time for the majestic view of the Himalayas.
