Himalayas

Himalayas, the abode of gods, is the highest and most scenic place in the world. For pilgrims and photographers alike, it has more than one can ask for. And it is never enough to be there. (Many of my pictures in Himalayas were on paper. Most of the photos here are shot with older Nikon 3.2 and 12 Megapixel digital cameras)
